That doesn't mean much. Nothing mandates to have a CCI, and plenty of
systems have other ways to maintain coherency.

It's not about CCI or not CCI. It is about which shareability domain
your ITS is in.

And it doesn't only affect the ITS. It also affects the
redistributors, and anything that accesses memory.

Ah, this suspiciously looks like a Rockchip machine...

If you have such issue, this needs to be handled as per-platform
quirk. I'm not putting such generic hacks in the driver.
