I see some comments from Krzysztof here
<https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/7a0477a0-9f0f-87d6-4070-30321745f4cc@linaro.org/>
as well. Looks like everyone is pointing out that having our CPU nodes
encode timers is a bad idea, my guess is that they're probably right.

That leaves us with a dependency between kernel versions and DT
bindings: kernels with the current driver will result in broken systems
with the non-retentive suspend states in the DT they boot with when
those states can't wake up the CPU.
