8b5c18f05 also removes the need for .init_machine because
of_platform_populate() is now called by common arm code.

So I'm just wondering if the call to socfpga_init_ocram_ecc() can be
done in socfpga_init_irq() along with the call to socfpga_init_l2_ecc(),
so that you don't have to bring back the custom init_machine callback.
