I agree with the 'potentially fragile' assessment, however
experimentation by Guodong and me showed that the CCI must be enabled on
all cores and done before the bootwrapper drops into non-secure mode.
I.e. before we get the chance to enter the C code and easily parse
device-tree.

Perhaps there is something we need to do to get access to CCI in non
secure mode?
