One additional oddity here is why we have explicit support for
the mount matrix only in the ACPI paths.  There are standard DT bindings
for it as well which we should be using.

So let us take your approach below for now, but it would be good to
support this properly on non acpi platforms as well.  Where it isn't
specified it will fall back to an identity matrix which is as good as
we have now with no information supplied.

Please send a v2 with the below.

Thanks,

Jonathan
