You are correct. We also missed this because "SYSCON" option was
not enabled in exynos_defconfig.
I noticed this during preparation of V2 when I planned to use
"early_syscon_init" [1] as suggested by Sylwester here [2].

In V2 I will take care of this. I hope soon I will be able to post second
version of this series, just waiting for testing and internal code review.
