There are indeed multiple functions for this particular IP block. It's pretty much a
kitchen sink of clocks, pinmux, reboot, watchdog, SMP and probably a couple
more I forgot about!

We've discussed this MFD structure with Geert, we picked that because if I
were to add all these callbacks/drivers to a 'sysctrl' driver, it'd end up looking
like ... a mach-xx.c file in the end!
So the current version is just a placeholder for a single driver for now, but it
won't last, there's already a SMP core enable driver lined up next...

Please see above...
