IMHO this isn't better just different. As I don't have any Cavium docs
about their SoCs, it's hard to say what's the correct way to fix this.
There is the same pattern in CN61XX case

                if (fus_dat2.cn61xx.nocrypto && fus_dat2.cn61xx.dorm_crypto)
                        suffix = "AP";
                if (fus_dat2.cn61xx.nocrypto)
                        suffix = "CP";

which isn't present in the latest Cavium SDK. So maybe just removing

                if (fus_dat2.cn66xx.nocrypto && fus_dat2.cn66xx.dorm_crypto)
                        suffix = "AP";

is more appropriate.

Thomas.
