Highbank processors depend on the external ECME to perform voltage
management based on a requested frequency. Communication between the
A9 cores and the ECME happens over the pl320 IPC channel.

The pl320 IPC allows for interprocessor communication between the
highbank A9 and the EnergyCore Management Engine. The pl320 implements
a straightforward mailbox protocol.

This lets us build a multiplatform kernel for experimental purposes.
However, it will not be useful for any real work, because it relies
on a number of useful things to be disabled for now:
* SMP support must be turned off because of conflicting symbols.
Marc Zyngier has proposed a solution by adding a new SOC
operations structure to hold indirect function pointers
for these, but that work is currently stalled
* We turn on SPARSE_IRQ unconditionally, which is not supported
on most platforms. Each of them is currently in a different
state, but most are being worked on.
* A common clock framework is in place since v3.4 but not yet
being used. Work on this is on its way.
* DEBUG_LL for early debugging is currently disabled.
* THUMB2_KERNEL does not work with allyesconfig because the
kernel gets too big
[Rob Herring]: Rebased to not be dependent on the mass mach header rename.
As a result, omap2plus, imx, mxs and ux500 are not converted. Highbank,
picoxcell, mvebu, and socfpga are converted.
