Brian Norris a1ad3b94a7 ARM: brcmstb: update CPU power management sequence
The automatic CPU power state machine for B15 CPUs does not work
reliably as-is. This patch implements a manual sequence in software to
replace it.

This was tested successfully with over 10,000 hotplug cycles of
something like this:

  echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
  echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online

whereas the existing sequence often locks up after a few hundred cycles.

Brian Norris 62639c2f53 ARM: brcmstb: reintroduce SMP support
Support for SMP bringup of the B15 CPUs on Broadcom STB chips was added
in commit 4fbe66d990 but was reverted in
commit fc3e825fa9 to address some late
review comments. This reintroduces SMP support.

Brian Norris fc3e825fa9 ARM: brcmstb: revert SMP support
There were several issues (of varying degree of importance) pointed out
with this code late in the review cycle, yet the code was still merged.
Let's rip it out for now and look at resubmitting at a later time.

This reverts most of commit 4fbe66d990.

The BCM7xxx series of Broadcom SoCs are used primarily in set-top boxes.

This patch adds machine support for the ARM-based Broadcom SoCs.
