[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 5/5] rockchip: back-to-bootrom: do not compile bootrom.o in thumb mode

With start.o being compiled to A32 for ARMv7 (and no Thumb mode), we
need to ensure that the call to save_boot_params_ret either happens
from ARM mode or uses an interwork branch.

To keep things simple, we force bootrom.o to always be A32 code by
setting specific CFLAGS for this compilation unit.  Note that marking
save_boot_params_ret with the 'target(arm)'-function attribute did not
generate an interwork branch when calling save_boot_params_ret.
