88077280c4 ARM: bcm2835: add mailbox driver
The BCM2835 SoC contains (at least) two CPUs; the VideoCore (a/k/a "GPU")
and the ARM CPU. The ARM CPU is often thought of as the main CPU.
However, the VideoCore actually controls the initial SoC boot, and hides
much of the hardware behind a protocol. This protocol is transported
using the SoC's mailbox hardware module.

Here, we add a very simplistic driver for the mailbox module, and define
a few structures for the property messages.

59d63f7d2c ARM: arm1176: Define arch_cpu_init() at the SoC level
Commit 86c6326 "ARM: arm1176: enable instruction cache in
arch_cpu_init()" defined arch_cpu_init() in a file that is shared across
all arm1176 SoCs. tnetv107x already implemented this function, which
caused linking to break. Move the new conflicting arch_cpu_init() into
arm1176/bcm2835/init.c so that it doesn't conflict; grep indicates this
function is usually defined at the SoC-level, not the CPU-level, at least
for ARM.

efad6cf881 ARM: add basic support for the Broadcom BCM2835 SoC
This SoC is used in the Raspberry Pi, for example.

For more details, see:
http://www.broadcom.com/products/BCM2835
http://www.raspberrypi.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/BCM2835-ARM-Peripherals.pdf.

Initial support is enough to boot to a serial console, execute a minimal
set of U-Boot commands, download data over a serial port, and boot a
Linux kernel. No storage or network drivers are implemented.

GPIO driver originally by Vikram Narayanan <vikram186@gmail.com>
with many fixes from myself.
