    In order to start upstreaming Broadcom SoC support, create
    a starting hierarchy, arch and dts files.
    The first support SoC family that is planned is the
    BCM281XX (BCM11130/11140/11351/28145/28155) family of dual A9 mobile
    SoC cores.
    This code is just the skeleton code for get the machine upstreamed. It
    has been made MULTIPLATFORM compatible.
    Next steps
    ----------
    Upstream a basic set of drivers - sufficient for a console boot to
    ramdisk. These will includer timer, gpio, i2c drivers.
    After this basic set, we will proceed with a more comprehensive set
    of drivers for the 281XX SoC family.
    
    v2 patch mods
    --------
     - Remove l2x0_of_init call as there were problems with the code.
       A separate patch will be submitted with cache init code
     - Rename capri files and refs to bcm281xx-based names
     - Add bcm281xx binding doc
     - various misc cleanups
    
    v3 patch mods
    -------------
     - Remove extra #include lines
     - Remove remaining references to capri
     - dt uart chipset string added
     - cleaned up chip # references
    
    v4 patch mods
    -------------
     - swap order of compatible definitions for uart
     - fix typo
    
    v5 patch mods
    -------------
     - Rename bcm281xx to bcm11351 in dts+code,
       leaving references to bcm281xx only in help+comments.
    
    v6 patch mods
    -------------
     - fix typo in uart 'compatible' string
