Isn't it a time to deprecate it?

psci is system specific too.

IIRC this driver for zynq was written by ADI or with ADI help that's why
you know much better than I what's the correct configuration.

This targets PS IP which should be present in the hw all the time.
Not sure if for all configuration but I expect at least the part of it
is there all them time.

If binding is incorrect then please remove it with removing from all
dts/dtsi files which have this. The same is for of probe function in the
driver itself.
If this is not done then this is just +1 case.

If you still insist that we shouldn't do it then please at least extend
commit message and put there example how to wire it on zynq.

Thanks,
Michal
