And even before DT migration, we used to build statically some
omap_device to represent the various processors in the system (MPU,
DSP, CortexM3...).

Yeah, but that's very OMAP specific - we don't have that in general (in
fact it's the only Linux platform I'm aware of that has a device for the
CPU).

But isn't this the right thing to do for everyone else too?

That doesn't really matter so long as nobody else is actually doing it;
you can't make a decision like this in an OMAP-specific fashion, you
need to make sure everyone else is on board with the decision and make
sure we've got at least at a high level way of representing the CPUs and
SoCs in the device tree that people can buy into.
