The first variants of Armada XP SoCs (A0 stepping) have issues related
to the i2c controller which prevent to use the offload mechanism and
lead to a kernel hang during boot.

The driver now check the revision of the SoC. If the revision is not
more recent than the A0 or if the driver can't get the SoC revision
then it disables the offload mechanism.

Very minor nits:

I'd prefer (mvebu_get_soc_id == 0) here, since !mvebu_get_soc_id can
easily be read as "if not get soc id" which leads to the assumption the
function failed. And the parantheses around the second comparison are
superfluous.

Since this depends on arch-specific code in the previous patch, I'd like
to keep the two of them together in a topic branch.  Would you prefer to
take both with my Ack, or vice-versa?  I'm fine either way.

I'd think you better take it:
