[U-Boot] [PATCH 3/9] arm: Move CP15 init out of cpu_init_crit()

Some SOCs have do not start up with their 'main' CPU. The first U-Boot
code may then be executed with a CPU which does not have a CP15, or not a
useful one.

Here we split the initialization of CP15 into a separate call, which can
be performed later if required.

Once the main CPU is running, you should call cpu_init_cp15() to perform
this init as early as possible.

Existing ARMv7 boards which define CONFIG_SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT should not
need to change, this CP15 init is still skipped in that case. The only
impact for these boards is that the cpu_init_cp15() will be available
even if it is never used on these boards.
