[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 8/8] ARM: VExpress: enable ARMv7 virt support for VExpress A15

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 functions to do the SMP bringup:
smp_set_cpu_boot_addr() to set the start address for secondary cores
and smp_waitloop() to wait for IPIs and jump to the start address.

This also serves as an example for what to do when adding support for
new boards.
