[U-Boot] [RFC PATCH 0/2] ARMv8 Aarch32 support

[Ryan Harkin]

I've been working with Soby Mathew to get U-Boot booting on ARM's
AEMv8 FVP model in Aarch32 mode.

Soby worked out what needed to be changed and I'm refining the changes
into patches that can be built for both Aarch64 and Aarch32 mode.

There are two patches for discussion:

[RFC PATCH 1/2] Add Aarch32 option for ARMv8 CPUs
[RFC PATCH 2/2] Add vexpress_aemv8a_aarch32 variant

I expect the first patch to be controversial.  I also don't expect it to 
be accepted, but to demonstrate what changes we needed to make to get an 
ARMv8 platform to boot in Aarch32 mode when selecting CPU_V7 instead of
ARM64 as the CPU type.  This in itself may be the wrong approach.

It adds an ARMV8_AARCH32 config option and some checks in generic code 
for that option to allow the code to differentiate between the two
modes.

The second patch should be less controversial.  It adds support for a
new AEMv8 variant that runs in 32-bit mode.  The most awkward part is
that it defines itself not as ARM64, but as CPU_V7.  I expect this to
change based on feedback from patch 1/2.

The Aarch32 code runs on the same AEMv8 model as the Aarch64 code, but 
takes an extra per-core model launch parameter to switch the cores into
Aarch32 mode, eg. "-C cluster0.cpu0.CONFIG64=0".
