Ok, then we just need one scu_probe_*() variant for each of the
four methods of initializing it (iotable, of_iomap,
ioremap(scu_a9_get_base) and hardcoded.

The intention of doing the fallback for the NULL argument was
to avoid having to add lots of new API while also allowing
the change to be done one platform at a time.

If we remove the argument from the other functions, they either
need to get a new name, or we change them all to the new prototype
at once. Either way works fine, do you have a preference between
them?
