If timer_init() is made a weak stub function, then it allows us to
remove several empty timer_init functions for those boards that
already have a timer initialized when u-boot starts. Architectures
that use the timer framework may also remove the need for timer.c.

To enable hypervisors utilizing the ARMv7 virtualization extension
on the Versatile Express board with the A15 core tile, we add the
required configuration variable.
Also we define the board specific smp_set_cpu_boot_addr() function to
set the start address for secondary cores in the VExpress specific
manner.
There is no need to provide a custom smp_waitloop() function here.
This also serves as an example for what to do when adding support for
new boards.

This patch creates a new config for the A5 dual core tile that includes the
generic config for the Versatile Express platform.
The generic config has been modified to provide support for the Extended
Memory Map, as used on the A5 core tile. A5 does not support the legacy
memory map.

The current ca9x4_ct_vxp platform contains support for a Versatile
Express motherboard with a quad core A9 core tile.
This patch separates the Versatile Express motherboard code and the
A9 specific code, to ease supporting more core tiles in the next
patches.
Andre: merged the first two of Ryan's original patches and did some
checkpatch fixes.
