Yann E. MORIN 56a315f18f arch/arm: add armv8.2a cortex-based cores
The armv8.2a generation is a cumulative extension to armv8.1a.

Since gcc correctly enables the appropriate extensions based on the core
name, we don't really need to introduce a separate config for armv8.2a,
and we can piggyback on armv8a.

In theory, gcc supports those cores in arm mode. However, configuring
gcc thusly generates a non-working gcc that constantly whines:
    cc1: warning: switch -mcpu=cortex-a55 conflicts with -march=armv8.2-a switch

It is to be noted that the -march flag is internal to gcc. It is not
something that Buildroot did set when configuring gcc; Buildroot only
ever sets --with-cpu (not --with-arch).

Additionally, uClibc fails to build entirely (unsure if this is caused
by the above, or if it is a separate issue, though), with:
    #### Your compiler does not support TLS and you are trying to build uClibc-ng
    #### with NPTL support. Upgrade your binutils and gcc to versions which
    #### support TLS for your architecture. Do not contact uClibc-ng maintainers
    #### about this problem.

Glibc and musl have not been tested in arm mode, so maybe we could have
a toolchain that eventually works (or at least, pretends to be working),
but we decided it was not worth the effort.

Thus, we restrict those cores to AArch64 mode only.

README

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC.
