I really don't like changing the device tree based on Linux internals.  It
also means that the workaround wouldn't work for users that don't upgrade
their device tree.  I definitely don't like one QorIQ chip having "syscon" on
the dcfg node but others not having it.

The guts driver should just maintain a list of compatibles to match.  Why do
we need to use syscon, rather than a guts driver that exports an fsl_get_svr()
function?
