The case that Stefano is interested in if obviously other platforms
that can either run as Dom0 under Xen with psci_smp_ops or natively
with their own smp_ops. A similar case would be a platform that
may implement psci using smc when run in secure mode but provide
its own smp_ops when run natively.

In both cases, it would be simpler to use psci if available but
fall back to mdesc->smp otherwise.
