It's only what I've been told before: We shoudn't add properties which
depend on non-upstream software (if an upstream alternative exists). Also
I'm not sure what happens if somebody doesn't use downstream bootloader
and PSCI can't be found: Would the board still be able to boot?

Thanks for helping testing this.
