[U-Boot] [PATCH] arm: armv7-a: Enable mtune when CONFIG_CPU_V7A

arch/arm/Makefile has a list of options for mtune, but the
entry for CONFIG_CPU_V7A is empty.  By tuning for generic-armv7-a
both the size of SPL and u-boot shrink a little.  For those
with limited resources in SPL, every little bit helps.

The following size changed apply to omap3_logic

Original:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 541198	  22692	 327040	 890930	  d9832	u-boot

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  50964	    429	  67580	 118973	  1d0bd	spl/u-boot-spl

With -mtune=generic-armv7-a
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 540934	  22692	 327056	 890682	  d973a	u-boot

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  50972	    429	  67580	 118981	  1d0c5	spl/u-boot-spl
