Added to the DT in order to easily enable/disable the driver. You are
correct that they are CortexA57 core features and nothing Amazon
specific, but it's IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED, meaning that in different
cortex revisions (e.g. A57) the register bitmap may change. Because of
that we added an Amazon compatible which corresponds to the specific
core we are using.

Thanks,
