We agreed to remove support for this specific SoC entirely from the
kernel. With this merge window, it won't boot anymore. It was for
internal development only anyhow. So, instead of adding new quirks for
it, I will remove all existing ones once rc1 is released. So, this patch
can be dropped.

Thank you for your review,

   Wolfram
