According to their TRMs, Cortex ARMv7 CPUs with SMP support require the
ACTLR.SMPEN bit to be set as early as possible, before any cache or TLB
maintenance operations are done. As we do those things still in start.S,
we need to move the SMPEN bit setting there, too.

This introduces a new ARMv7 wide symbol and code to set bit 6 in ACTLR
very early in start.S, and moves sunxi boards over to use that instead
of the custom code we had in our board.c file (where it was called
technically too late).

In practice we got away with this so far, because at this point all the
other cores were still in reset, so any broadcasting would have been
ignored anyway. But it is architecturally cleaner to do it early, and
we move a core specific piece of code out of board.c.

This also gets rid of the ARM_CORTEX_CPU_IS_UP kludge I introduced a few
years back, and moves the respective logic into the new Kconfig entry.

If this is required by the CPU, why is it shown to the user? Shouldn't it be
selected by MACH_SUN6/7/8/9I? That is what I see platforms doing with
ARMV8_SET_SMPEN.

You are right, it shouldn't be user visible, instead selected by platform
Kconfigs. Technically we could even work that out at runtime (read MIDR &
MPIDR), but I think there are situations were we want to avoid this, so we
would probably need an opt-in from the platform anyways.
This patch was just trying to mimic the existing logic as close as
possible, since we know that works for years. Changing this is scary
enough. And the negative logic is shorter than enumerating all ARMv7 SMP
cores, the list of which could even grow.

But indeed there is more cleanup potential here. I see some platforms
setting this bit in their code (similar to what sunxi did), but I didn't
dare to touch those. Maybe I add a follow up patch to move those platforms
over, and possibly merge this with ARMV8_SET_SMPEN on the way.

Cheers,
Andre
