Are you sure you have enough BUG_ON()s there?  It's well worth reading
Linus' various messages on the use of BUG(), which can be found:

	http://yarchive.net/comp/linux/BUG.html

The lack of the timer and sysctl registers are really a 'report and maybe
we could get a message out' kind of scenario rather than a 'oops, kill
the machine'.

And in any case, both these paths have a common set of BUG_ON()s:
	BUG_ON(!sysctl_base);
	BUG_ON(!timer01_base);

So do we really need them having this independently?

You do understand that system_rev is for the system _revision_ not for
some kind of system ID.  For example, it's to identify whether we're on
a revision 4, 5 or 6 system.

However, with DT the differences in system revision should be encoded
into the DT itself, and the kernel should not be making choices about
the hardware off this.
