From: Stephen Warren <swarren at nvidia.com>
Implement a hook to allow boards to save boot-time CPU state for later
use. When U-Boot is chain-loaded by another bootloader, CPU registers may
contain useful information such as system configuration information. This
feature mirrors the equivalent ARMv7 feature.
