Hmm, I don't think this is sufficient to check for SMCCC reliably.
Instead, I think you need to do something more involved:

1. Check for PSCI in the DT
2. Check that the PSCI major version is >= 1
3. Use PSCI_FEATURES to check that you have SMCCC
4. Use SMCCC_VERSION to find out which version of SMCCC you have

That's roughly what the PSCI driver does, so we should avoid duplicating
that logic.
