The recent commit "ARM: EXYNOS: add support for EXYNOS5440 SoC" broke
support for exynos5250 because of_machine_is_compatible() was used too
early in the boot process. It also probably meant that the exynos5440
failed to use the proper iotable. Switch to use
of_flat_dt_is_compatible() in both of these cases.

The failure I was seeing in exynos5250 because of this was:

Thanks Doug.

Kukjin, I'll apply this directly on top of the previous branch in
arm-soc, if that's OK with you.

Sure, go ahead with my ack if you want,

Note, actually there was a fix which uses soc_is_exynos5440() in my local :-) I'm not sure which one is better at this moment, but I'm OK on this.

Thanks.

Best regards,
Kgene.
