Surely this is only a machine specific bug in the boot loader, not something
the SoC is incapable of supporting, right?

I think the psci method should be kept in the dtsi file here, since actual
product boards would have to support it to be useful, you can just add
the spin-table as an override in the broken reference boards, with a
comment about which u-boot version is broken, in case this gets fixed
in the future.
