This register (0x58) was introduced in a370/axp (with a new SATA PHY version).
In other SoCs the register does not exist.

Writing/reading the registers on A300/A310 will not cause any harm (I haven't
tried A510).
But, I think it's better to check if we're running on A370/AXP. (maybe with a new
compatibility string in DT?)
