Hi Sai,

There is a bug on the systems supporting to skip power up
(qcom,skip-power-up) where setting LPOVERRIDE bit(low-power
state override behaviour) will result in CPU hangs/lockups
even on the implementations which supports it. So skip
setting the LPOVERRIDE bit for such platforms.

The fix is fine by me. Btw, is there a hardware Erratum assigned for
this ? It would be good to have the Erratum documented somewhere,
preferrably ( Documentation/arm64/silicon-errata.rst )
