Sorry my mistake. Stupidly the existing drivers have it wrong and I just
copied them without paying much attention. I will fix it up. It must be
0x50434300 instead of 0x50424300. If you have no other comments, can you
please ack v2 patch 4/4 changing soc kunpeng_hccs driver. I will fixup
the PCC_SIGNATURE and send it as part of my PR to Rafael.

Refer [1] for the change in PCC_SIGNATURE, sorry for missing the point. I
was confident that the existing code is correct :), but I am wrong.
