Add SMP support for Broadcom's Northstar Plus SoC,
cpu enable method and pen_release procedures. This
changes also consolidates iProc family's - BCM NSP
and BCM Kona, SMP handling in a common file.

This will probably also work on normal Northstar CPUs without changes.

I think, it should work for most of the variants of Northstar family, 
except for those which have a BOOTROM bug.

Which SoC are affected by this BOOTROM bug?

53012 is the one I am seeing.  Not seeing it on 4708 (and assuming it is
not present on 4709).  Internally, we do the ugly bug workaround on
all Northstar SoCs.  The workaround is not acceptable upstream, so I
am not pushing it. :)

Thanks,
Jon

Hi Hauke,

Now that you have tested Jon's patch which is based on my changes for
SMP, shall I take his changes and add it on top of my changes and resend?
Also, do I consider your Acked-by and Tested-by for the change?

Thanks,
Kapil

Hi Kapil,

I tested this on Northstar 1.

Acked-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>
Tested-by: Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>

I think Florian has to take the patches and you should hurry up because
the merge window probably opens on Monday.

You can send all patches again with the bcm501x patch or just that one,
I assume there are no changes needed for the other patches?
