Not sure about this. It seems like the cleanest approach if we get
a lot of these, but then again it is probably very rare, and I'd
like to avoid adding such infrastructure if it's just for one
SoC. Could we add a hack in the machine initialization instead?

I think ideally this would be done in the boot loader before we
even start Linux, but I don't know if that's possible for you.
