No, platform specific bits are hidden behind MCPM. Apart from idle states
data, that will soon be initialized through DT too.

Actually, when idle for arm64 is merged we can even rework it and end up
with a single driver, DT based, that's the ultimate goal.

Yes, you have a point.

Agreed, but subtle differences do not belong in this driver, that's the
purpose of abstracting it the best we can. I have no problem in leaving
platform specific compatible there though.
