There seems to be examples of both -ENOMEM and -ENODEV in other ARM platforms.
arch/arm/mach-aspeed/platsmp.c uses -ENODEV for example.
I went with -ENODEV there as the source of the error is most likely
the node not being in the device tree.
I didn't check the result of of_find_compatible_node() because for the
memory barrier code in the same file I was told it wasn't necessary.
Thanks,
Daniel
