This patch adds the device tree support for FSL LS2085A SoC based on
ARMv8 architecture.

Following levels of DTSI/DTS files have been created for the LS2085A
SoC family:

- fsl-ls2085a.dtsi:
DTS-Include file for FSL LS2085A SoC.

- fsl-ls2085a-simu.dts:
DTS file for FSL LS2085a software simulator model.

Hmm, outside of something like qemu, we don't normally have simulation
model dts/support in the kernel.

Well for ARMv8 - foundation model is an existing simulation model having DTS
support.

True but that model was generally available to the open source community and was to get the base armv8 support going.
