The ASPEED hardware contains a lock register for the SCU that disables
any writes to the SCU when it is locked. The machine comes up with the
lock enabled, but on all known hardware u-boot will unlock it and leave
it unlocked when loading the kernel.
This means the kernel expects the SCU to be unlocked. When booting from
an emulated ROM the normal u-boot unlock path is executed. Things don't
go well when booting using the -kernel command line, as u-boot does not
run first.
Change behaviour so that when a kernel is passed to the machine, set the
reset value of the SCU to be unlocked.
