During CPU shutdown the exynos_cpu_power_down() is called after disabling cache coherency and it uses LDREX and STREX instructions (by calling of_machine_is_compatible() -> kobject_get() -> kref_get()). The LDREX and STREX should not be used after disabling the cache coherency so just use soc_is_exynos().
