I saw.  We originally tried adding our own calls, but with the advent of the
arm_smccc call it was nice to be able to leverage that instead of adding a whole
new copy of the thing.  And people didn't like the original implementation all
that much because it somewhat abused the arm_smccc register conventions.

If we added our own, it'd be a copy of the arm one with the extra register
access.
