This patch enables CLCD support for the VE platform emulated by the
ARMv8 software model (DT bindings are based on Pawel's vexpress
patches) together with defconfig entries for SERIO_AMBAKMI and
FB_ARMCLCD.

Starting with 3.18, we are merging SoC-specific changes for arm64 through
the arm-soc tree, like we have been doing for arm32.
This time, there is only one set of changes, adding support for the
Cavium "Thunder" Soc family. Since the changes are relatively small,
this includes Kconfig, defconfig and DT changes.
If all goes well, we will never require adding actual C source code
for platform support in arm64, given that the architecture is more
clearly defined and we have moved out a lot of the platform specifics
into device drivers for arm32 already.

arm64, defconfig: Enable Cavium Thunder SoC in defconfig
arm64, thunder: Add Kconfig option for Cavium Thunder SoC Family
arm64, thunder: Document devicetree bindings for Cavium Thunder SoC
arm64, thunder: Add initial dts for Cavium Thunder SoC
This patch enables Thunder SoCs in the arm64 defconfig. This is
esp. useful to add Thunder platforms to automated builds based on
arm64 defconfig.

Currently when run on an APM platform the ARMv8 defconfig has no viable
options for rootfs other than ramdisk which is rather limiting. Since
we already have both SATA and the bits needed for NFS root enabled we just
need to enable the relevant drivers so do that, helping enable direct
testing of upstream.
If the configuration ends up becoming too big we can consider modularising
some of the drivers and asking people to use an initramfs but for now this
is not an issue.

When running as a kvm guest on a para-virtualised platform, it is useful
to have virtio implementations of console, 9pfs and network.
This adds these options to the arm64 defconfig, so we can easily run a
defconfig kernel build as both host and as a kvm guest.

Whilst our defconfig is certainly usable, there are a few extra features
we can enable to make it considerably more useful, particularly if
people are using it for testing:
- KVM
- SWAP
- Hugepages
- ARMv8 crypto
This patch enables these options in our defconfig. Note that the ordering
has changed slightly, since this is the result of a new savedefconfig
make target.

FPGA implementations of the Cortex-A57 and Cortex-A53 are now available
in the form of the SMM-A57 and SMM-A53 Soft Macrocell Models (SMMs) for
Versatile Express. As these attach to a Motherboard Express V2M-P1 it
would be useful to have support for some V2M-P1 peripherals enabled by
default.
Additionally a couple of of features have been introduced since the last
defconfig update (CMA, jump labels) that would be good to have enabled
by default to ensure they are build and boot tested.
This patch updates the arm64 defconfig to enable support for these
devices and features. The arm64 Kconfig is modified to select
HAVE_PATA_PLATFORM, which is required to enable support for the
CompactFlash controller on the V2M-P1.
A few options which don't need to appear in defconfig are trimmed:
* BLK_DEV - selected by default
* EXPERIMENTAL - otherwise gone from the kernel
* MII - selected by drivers which require it
* USB_SUPPORT - selected by default

Currently, development on arm64 is aided by a Foundation_v8 emulator
distributed by ARM [1]. To run their kernels, users will execute:
$ ./Foundation_v8 --image linux-system.axf --block-device raring-rootfs
To mount the raring-rootfs filesystem, the kernel parameter should
typically include:
root=/dev/vda
For this device to be present, the kernel must be compiled with
VIRTIO_{MMIO,BLK}. To make this work out-of-the-box, make it part of the
default configuration.

Most readily available root filesystems are formatted as EXT4 these

The Kconfig entry for DEBUG_ERRORS is a verbatim copy of the former arm
entry for that symbol. It got removed in v2.6.39 because it wasn't
actually used anywhere. There are still no users of DEBUG_ERRORS so
remove this entry too.
