I am hesitate to use CONFIG_ARM64 instead of CONFIG _ARMV8.
I am not sure whether all the CONFIG_ARMV8 could be replaced with CONFIG_ARM64
or CONFIG_ARMV8 and CONFIG_ARMV64 are both needed.
I will take this into account in the next.

Currently, the stack preservation code has no comparability with it's original copy.
I think it could be licensed with GPL-2.0+.

It seems that Bhupesh Sharma own two mail box and he usually
use B45370 at freescale.com at u-boot mailing list. 
I will fix it in the next.

Best regards.
