I think it would be better to just add more fields and access a different
field based on the SoC type than cast the structs around.

Also, never use __raw_writel unless you know exactly what you are doing.
This should use writel, or possibly writel_relaxed.

Finally, don't sprinkle of_machine_is_compatible() checks all over the
place. Make the decision once when you initially probe the machine.
