Can you try reverting this hunk. I don't think it should be needed and
it is preventing /soc@0 children from being probed. If things still
don't work, then it should purely be a probe ordering problem. I have
some better fixes in mind, but not for 4.8. So if this doesn't work,
then the same fix as PPC is fine.

Nevermind, reverting this hunk is not enough.
