The A15/A7 still have the register for the other peripherals like the
GIC, but there are no SCU registers or other way to get a core count
from the h/w.

The DT node could be used to determine if you have an SCU or not. I just
used the cpu node compatible value to determine that.

Well, reading the cp15 register and mapping the registers could be
common code independent of DT. I'm not sure if there are non-A9
implementations of the SCU which don't have the cp15 register.
