Cortex A5 doesnt support VFP, Large Page addressing and generic timer
which are addressed in this patch. The device tree for Cortex a5
is also included.

If ARMv7 based platform does not set ARM_CORTEX_Ax=yes, platform
shall define ARMV7_SUPPORTS_GENERIC_TIMER to enable generic timer
support.

ARMv7-A Virtualization extensions brings new instructions and resources
that were supported by later architectures. Reference ARM ARM Issue C.c
[DDI0406C_C].
ERET and extended MSR/MRS instructions, as specified in [DDI0406C_C] in
ID_PFR1 description of bits[15:12] (Virtualization Extensions):
A value of 0b0001 implies implementation of the HVC, ERET, MRS
(Banked register), and MSR (Banked register) instructions. The ID_ISARs
do not identify whether these instructions are implemented.
UDIV/SDIV were introduced with the Virtualization extensions, even if
not strictly related to the virtualization extensions.
If ARMv7 based platform does not set ARM_CORTEX_Ax=yes, platform
shall define ARMV7_SUPPORTS_VIRTUALIZATION to enable virtualization
extension related resources.

ARCH_SUPPORTS_LARGE_PAGE_ADDRESSING allows build environment to
handle specific case when target ARMv7 core only supports 32bit MMU
descriptor mode.
If ARMv7 based platform does not set ARM_CORTEX_Ax=yes, platform
shall define ARMV7_SUPPORTS_LARGE_PAGE_ADDRESSING to enable
large page addressing support.

External build environment shall sets directive ARM_ARCH_MAJOR to 7
to specify a target ARMv7-A core.
As ARM-TF expects AARCH to be set, ARM_ARCH_MAJOR==7 mandates
AARCH=aarch32.
The toolchain target architecture/cpu is delegated after the platform
configuration is parsed. Platform shall define target core through
ARM_CORTEX_A<x>=yes, <x> being 5, 7, 9, 12, 15 and/or 17.
Platform can bypass ARM_CORTEX_A<x>=yes directive and provide straight
the toolchain target directive through MARCH32_DIRECTIVE.
