Fair point, I understand the scope better now. I counted 25 drivers
doing this, each with its own copy of roughly the same logic.

That is what I have done instead of the original patch:

  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20261013185603.1347265-1-harisokn@amazon.com/

Only arm-cmn is converted there; the other 24 are prototyped locally and
will follow if the approach looks right.

Please let me know your thoughts.
