261d27605c arm: Add support for semihosting for armv8 fastmodel targets.
The armv8 ARM Trusted Firmware (ATF) can be used to load various ATF
images and u-boot, and does this for virtual platforms by using
semihosting. This commit extends this idea by allowing u-boot to also
use semihosting to load the kernel/ramdisk/dtb. This eliminates the need
for a bootwrapper and produces a more realistic boot sequence with
virtual models.

Though the semihosting code is quite generic, support for armv7 in
fastmodel is less useful due to the wide range of available silicon
and the lack of a free armv7 fastmodel, so this change contains an
untested armv7 placeholder for the service trap opcode.

Please refer to doc/README.semihosting for a more detailed description
of semihosting and how it is used with the armv8 virtual platforms.

c71645ad2b arm64 patch: gicv3 support
This patch add gicv3 support to uboot armv8 platform.

Changes for v2:
  - rename arm/cpu/armv8/gic.S with arm/lib/gic_64.S
  - move smp_kick_all_cpus() from gic.S to start.S, it would be
    implementation dependent.
  - Each core initialize it's own ReDistributor instead of master
    initializeing all ReDistributors. This is advised by arnab.basu
    <arnab.basu@freescale.com>.

3865ceb726 vexpress/armv8: Fix incorrect ethernet controller
This patch enables ethernet support in ARMv8 foundation model. The ARMv8
foundation model supports a SMSC91C111 integrated MAC and PHY module
which is present at base address 0x01A000000.

The previous implementation had enabled SMSC9115 ethernet controller
which is not present on the ARMv8 foundation model.

Tested on ARMv8 foundation model v1 and v2 by running ping/tftp
between the foundation model and the host PC via a bridged network.
