Generally we do not detect IMP-DEF sysregs based on MIDR because they
won't necessarily be exposed to a VM, so I suspect that we do need DT
properties to describe that IMP-DEF sysregs are accessible, and should
not rely on the MIDR alone. Maybe that's implicit in another property,
but worth bearing in mind.
