This isn't great both in terms of it being conditional and the fact that
it's only usable on DT systems as there's no non-DT way to do this.  In
general unless we're working around some device tree issue (which should
be *very* rare) we shouldn't be adding any DT only stuff to generic
code, we need to be able to run Linux on non-DT systems.
