No. Please don't disable the node in the kernel device tree. IMHO TF-A
(or whoever is using the job ring) is optional. So either u-boot
should disable it, either statically by -u-boot.dtsi (but please _per_
board) or at runtime by fixing up the device tree. Another way would
be for linux to skip probing if its not available. Though I don't
know whether this is "the ususal way".

But as Andrey mentioned, any job ring could be taken away. So the
-u-boot.dtsi method doesn't seem to be that good.
