Well, NX already has some device tree nodes that Haren's patches will update
for VAS. But as of now, don't see a need for VAS-specific device tree nodes.
Kernel can/will attempt to initialize VAS based on the processor version (P9)
for now. If a device tree node becomes necessary, we can maybe add later?
