They are kind of generic. If you look at it, the only change
Which is arch specific is the implementation of "debug_writel" function.
Today this code is not in generic PL310 code, but
OMAP specific.

May be we can make this as exported function pointer, which
arch's can populate.

Will that work for you ?
