The PMU driver used to have a feature for initialising platform
specific bits, but it is currently being removed to make the PMU
code more maintainable. My understanding is, that it's very uncommon
to require platform specific setup to get secure-reg-access working.
I.e. it is not needed for newer iMX platforms.
