This change has been required for the SAMA7G54 MPU already, and implemented by
two complementary commits:

https://github.com/linux4microchip/linux/commit/763a3c05c8f9d0feb279c6f308fa5d48d14e07d3
https://github.com/linux4microchip/linux/commit/b5bbc888fb39471d46fe0a4ff28f69533c265dd0

At least they have been validated by test campaigns.
If that existing work seemed OK for you and the LAN969x, then I could squash
these two commits and submit the result.
