I am very reluctant to expose this array to the rest of the kernel.
The temptation becomes huge for people to start writing to it
from random drivers in order to route PSCI calls somewhere else.
Consider exporting an accessor instead.

Same thing for the following patch (there already are a couple of
accessors for psci_cpu_suspend_feature, which you could make visible).

Thanks,

         M.
