[U-Boot] [PATCH v2] sunxi: Add CONFIG_OLD_SUNXI_KERNEL_COMPAT Kconfig option

Add a Kconfig option which users can select when they want to boot older
kernels, e.g. the linux-sunxi 3.4 kernels. For now this just forces the pll5
"p" value to 1 (divide by 2) as that is what those kernels are hardcoded too,
in the future this may enable further workarounds.
