I was confused by the `IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARCH_ZYNQMP)`. Why is this needed?

The problem is that this driver doesn't really follow the driver model 
and is hard to understand. Other drivers requires an udevice for its 
functions. In this case the uclass_get_device_by_phandle() will ensure 
that the driver is probed or a failure is returned.

If we want to ensure that zynqmp_pmufw_node() is skipped without a 
previous call of zynqmp_power_probe() we have to keep the check in the 
function.

I have test it on our hardware.
