I wanted to make the PRCMU driver more stand-alone, looking up
its own resources etc, so I prefer to keep it like this. The other
use in mach-ux500/cpu-db8500.c is the power domains that
should ideally also become a separate driver.

This is called very early on init_IRQ() -> machine->init_irq()
and I just don't know any better way to sneak in before
init_time(), else I would use it...

Fixed the rest!

Thanks a lot,
