PSCI: NULL pointer dereference

[Alim Akhtar]

Hi Mark/Lorenzo,

Getting a NULL pointer dereference from psci_0_2_set_functions() like [1].
But this goes away with a addition of a printk (see blow diff) or a 
udelay(10) with the same firmware on the board.

         psci_function_id[PSCI_FN_CPU_ON] = PSCI_FN_NATIVE(0_2, CPU_ON);
         psci_ops.cpu_on = psci_cpu_on;


My firmware returns PSCI_E_NOT_SUPPORTED for psci_migrate() and 
PSCI_TOS_NOT_PRESENT_MP for psci_migrate_info_type().

Any idea, what going wrong?
Why adding a print or delay always works?
