They can be used in any PrimeXsys based system, and I don't see that
there's anything which guarantees having both a SP810 and SP804
together.

There are platforms which have SP804 without SP810 - Integrator CP
and bcmring seem to fall into that category.

But... the register concerned does a whole load of other things, and
I'm not sure we want to have accesses to it de-centralized.
