Add support for Solidrun's MX6 Cubox/Hummingboard.

For more information about these boards, please check:

https://www.solid-run.com/freescale-imx6-family/hummingboard/
https://www.solid-run.com/freescale-imx6-family/cubox-i/

U-Boot is capable of detecting the version of the board in run-time
and loads the correct dtb.

Hi Thomas,

Currently board/freescale/common/post-image.sh does not handle
SPL, so I can not use it for these boards.

I will see if we can extend board/freescale/common/post-image.sh
to support SPL as well.

Not specific to this defconfig, but I see we don't enable NEON/VFP
support for any of our i.MX6 defconfigs, even though the A9 cores used
afaik have both.

Is that something you would care to fix?

Yes, will enable these options on the mx6 defconfig, thanks.
