It could, I guess.  Actually, on i.MX we're setting this bit in platform
code right now.  But I think setting this bit makes sense for most of
the platforms, so it can reasonably be done in SCU core function.  Isn't
it the point of having core/common function after all?

Isn't standby bit implemented by all A9 SCU except a couple of very
early revisions (per Will)?
