I agree it would be nice only IPU managed the prcm, however we can't
do that right now because hwmod expects the IP block to be out of
reset to continue the _enable sequence. On IPU both reset lines are
asserted at that point and hence _are_any_hardreset_lines_asserted
check will bail out, and ipu resets can't be lifted without a
configured iommu otherwise it might execute random garbage.

So, for IPU and DSP the mmu must be deasserted and configured before
the processor reset line (which is more like a parking brake) is
deasserted, and the latter should be made before _enable is called so
it can fully execute the enable sequence.
