That's not possible, so I don't follow. Prior to 0.2 the function IDs
are not defined.

The FADT has a single bit which describes PSCI 0.2+ being implemented,
and does not describe function IDs.

You must assume PSCI 0.2+ in order to have a set of function IDs to use.

You should also assume the presence of the rest of the mandatory
portions of PSCI 0.2, as these are also required per the combination of
the PSCI spec and the ACPI spec.

Mark.
