On what does it depend if this pfunc stuff works or not? Only the SoC,
or also on some board specific properties? Given the former using the
compatible string to detect its availability would be better. (In this
case also sorry, didn't consider this case when requesting the property
in the last round.)

The patch looks ok.

Best regards
