I think it's known that I don't like the platform driver in here, and
I'm less than happy seeing it get extended.  Can we try to come up with
a better solution which allows ZTE to use the AMBA bus support while
still allowing it to be properly detected?

The reason is that the platform bus behaves in a completely different
way to the amba bus - platform bus does no runtime PM support whereas
amba bus does, and I don't want to see that difference eventually
impacting on this driver.
