Not exactly. Just having -0.2 in compatible will issue PSCI_VERSION
which *should be* available in v0.2 and above. If you get error there,
then we can *assume* it's PSCI v0.1. Hopefully it be sanely return
error if that's not implemented.

Note that we can only assume, as it might be v0.2 but missed to
implement PSCI_VERSION which is mandatory though.

Ah so, PSCI is implemented in U-Boot on this platform ? If so, and if
the source is available it should not be that hard to figure that out.
