of_find_compatible_node() in the driver works fine if we have only one
possible compatible property for the secure-monitor node. In this case
we have a different compatible property for each SoC (GXBB in this case)
so I think having the phandle in the DT is still the best thing to do.
Any thought on this Rob?
