Add support for specifying a differnt CPU for main u-boot and SPL
u-boot builds.  This is done by adding an optional SPL CPU after the
main CPU in boards.cfg as follows:

     normal_cpu:spl_cpu

This this case CPU will be set to "normal_cpu" during the main u-boot
build and "spl_cpu" during the SPL build.

This is part of my patch series to move all armv4t code out of tegra
u-boot to an SPL.  I haven't heard any suggestions on how to resolve
having a different CPU for the SPL build, so this is my suggestion
as a possible solution.

Thanks.  There's a newer version of this patch that we've been
carrying in the tegra tree.  Tom I'll need to rebase that patch on
top of this or they will collide the next time tegra merges up.
