Sorry but I think this change makes the topology more inaccurate.

The E24 core is very independent, just another CPU core connected the
same bus -- even no coherency (E24 takes AHB, which is not coherency-
sensible). Even the TAP of it is independent with the U74 TAP.

And by default it does not boot any proper code (if a debugger is
attached, it will discover that the E24 is in consistently fault at 0x0
(mtvec is 0x0 and when fault it jumps to 0x0 and fault again), until
its clock is just shutdown by Linux cleaning up unused clocks.)

Personally I think it should be implemented as a remoteproc instead.
