We shouldn't limit the scope of this code part [dsp early init] to the cases
were DSP support is enabled in kconfig - and that is the reason why this code
initially was guarded with BCR check only.

So, I change the check to

#if defined(CONFIG_ARC_DSP_HANDLED) || defined(CONFIG_ARC_DSP_NONE)

which is actually the equivalent to

#if defined(CONFIG_ISA_ARCV2)

but I don't think it's worth thing to do.
