Transition all boards that support arm cortex CPUs to armv7. This
leaves two armv6 kernels in the tree. RPI-B, which uses the BCM2835
which has a ARM1176 core, and VERSATILEPB, which is a qemu board setup
around the time RPI-B went in. Copy std.armv6 to std.armv7, even
though that duplicates a lot of stuff. More work needs to be done to
sort out the duplication.

and host1x module. Unfortunately, tegra124 SoC doesn't have 2D acceleration
engine and 3D requires not yet started nouveau driver.
These drivers forms a first non-x86 DRM2 enabled graphic stack.
Note, there are 2 outstanding issues:
- The code uses gross hack in order to be comply with
OBJT_MGTDEVICE pager. (See tegra_bo_init_pager() in tegra_bo.c)
- Due to improper(probably) refcounting in drm_gem_mmap_single()
(in drm_gem.c), the gem objects are never released.
I hope that I will be able to address both issues in finite time,
but I don't want to touch x86 world now.
MFC after: 1 month
All armv6 processors are plenty fast enough for HZ=1000.
No changes are made for older arm systems, because some chips are a bit
wimpy for 1000 while others do fine, so it has to be set on a per-config
basis.
so the module could be loaded.

This allow us to boot FreeBSD kernel (using uImage encapsulation) directly
from U-boot using 'bootm' command or by Android fastboot loader.
For now, kernel uImage must be marked as Linux, but we can add support for
FreeBSD into U-Boot later.
