<title>cxl: Add base builtin support</title>

This adds the base cxl support that cannot be built as a module. Specifically
it adds the cxl callbacks that are called from the core powerpc mm code which
must always exist irrespective of if the cxl module is loaded or not. This is
similar to how cell works with CONFIG_SPU_BASE.

This adds a cxl_slbia() call (similar to spu_flush_all_slbs()) which checks if
the cxl module is loaded and in use, returning immediately if it is not. If it
is in use it calls into the cxl SLB invalidation code.

The misc/atmel_pwm is not used by any mainlined boards and has been replaced by
the pwm-driver using the generic PWM framework.

AT91 symbols AT91SAM9263, AT91SAM9RL, and AT91SAM9G45 do not exist and this
patch changes them to their correct ARCH_* version.
These symbols are chosen instead of the SOC_* ones because this driver is not
converted to DT.
Anyway, the ATMEL_PWM symbol and the associated driver will be removed soon,
during the move to the PWM sub-system.

There is architecture code in mach-at91 that depends on the
CONFIG_ATMEL_PWM symbol in order to call the soc-specific
at91_add_device_pwm function. While all of this is about code
that will be removed in the future, using DT probing and
the PWM framework, we currently get a build failure:

arch/arm/mach-at91/built-in.o: In function `at91_pwm_leds':
arch/arm/mach-at91/leds.c:88: undefined reference to `at91_add_device_pwm'

This patch ensures we only try to build this driver on
platforms on which it will build and work.

The pch_phub driver is for a companion chip to the Intel Atom E600
series processors. These are 32-bit x86 processors so the driver is
only needed on X86_32. Add COMPILE_TEST as an alternative, so that the
driver can still be build-tested elsewhere.

<content type='text'>
This patch - finally, after over 6 months! :-( - addresses
Samuel's request to split the vexpress-sysreg driver into
smaller portions and define the device in a form of MFD
cells:

* LEDs code has been completely removed and replaced with
  "gpio-leds" nodes in the tree (referencing dedicated
  GPIO subnodes in sysreg - bindings documentation updated);
  this also better fits the reality as some variants of the
  motherboard don't have all the LEDs populated

* syscfg bridge code has been extracted into a separate
  driver (placed in drivers/misc for no better place)

* all the ID &amp; MISC registers are defined as sysconf
  making them available for other drivers should they need
  to use them (and also to the user via /sys/kernel/debug/regmap
  which can be helpful in platform debugging)

According to the driver descriptions, the atmel_pwm and atmel-ssc
drivers are only useful on Atmel AT32 and AT91 systems. So add
hardware dependencies to these drivers to hide them on other systems.
