However, a comment on the color of the bike shed below. I'm fine with this
being addressed with an incremental patch instead of respun:

I would prefer having a common psci_init() in psci.c, which in turn calls
either the dt or the acpi version, and after that calls the set_functions
if the init function passed -- it'll keep more code common as new versions
of PSCI is added.

It also keeps setup_arch() somewhat cleaner, and avoids bubbling up the
dt-vs-acpi differences to the top level.
