Similarly to the TC2 binding, what does this mean?
What is a kernel expected to do when it sees this entry-method?
Using "samsung,exynos" as the entry-method feels like something that's
going to bite us; it sounds far too wide-reaching.

This assignment looks scary to me. Why do we need to do this, and why
are we throwing away the constness of cpu_possible_mask?
Mark.
