Hm, with that we would wire up hardware modules which does nothing has
to do with each other. We just happen to need a driver which collects
information accross the SoC. I'm not sure we should put the modules
required into the device tree.

I don't think its nice to have the compatible strings in the source
code, however it feels more appropriate than in the device tree, IMHO...

We need to have mscm-cpucfg to be syscon because we need to get the CPU
personality in the MSCM interrupt router driver (irq-vf610-mscm-ir.c).
