Actually, if there is a sysace, it is definitely a xilinx part.  It
won't be on the SoC.  However, compatible = "xlnx,opb-sysace-1.00.b"
isn't really accurate.  It should really be compatible = "xlnx,sysace"
and the driver modified to accept this string.  "xlnx,opb-sysace-1.00.b"
is an FPGA block used to interface to the system ace which is
definitely not in use here.

So while it does get things to work, it is not a clean description of
the hardware.
