Mainline ATF has recently caught up:

https://git.trustedfirmware.org/TF-A/trusted-firmware-a.git/tree/plat/imx/imx8m/imx8mq/imx8mq_bl31_setup.c#n52

Linux arm64 depends on ATF to implement power management via PSCI: 
hotplug cpuidle and suspend.

It is not clear why Linux would avoid other services and insist on 
reimplementing hardware workarounds.
