Since PL061 currently only supports AMBA driver, to support using GPIO
PL061 by DT or ACPI, it needs to add support for platform driver.
A DT binding is provided with this patch, ACPI support is added in a
separate one.

I already stated in 0/2 what the problem is with this, and it's obviously adding
a huge codechunk, very similar to the AMBA probe path.

We need to investigate if ACPI can just spawn AMBA/PrimeCell type devices
instead.
