For an AArch64 CPU which supports 64K pages, having the GIC
register banks at 4K offsets is potentially awkward. Move
them out to being at 64K offsets. (This is harmless for
AArch32 CPUs and for AArch64 CPUs with 4K pages, so it is simpler
to use the same offsets everywhere than to try to use 64K offsets
only for AArch64 host CPUs.)

Rather than having the virt machine model create an a15mpcore_priv
device regardless of the actual CPU type in order to instantiate the GIC,
move to having the machine model create the GIC directly. This
corresponds to a system which uses a standalone GIC (eg the GIC-400)
rather than the one built in to the CPU core.
The primary motivation for this is to support the Cortex-A57,
which for a KVM configuration will use a GICv2, which is not
built into the CPU.

Set the reset-cbar property on CPUs used by the virt board,
if they have it. This isn't necessary for correct functioning
under Linux (since the A9 isn't a valid CPU for the virt board),
but it is the correct behaviour.

The qemu_devtree API is a wrapper around the fdt_ set of APIs.
Rename accordingly.

Support -cpu host in virt machine (treating it like an A15, ie
with a GIC v2 and the A15's private peripherals.)

Add 'virt' platform support corresponding to arch/arm/mach-virt
in the Linux kernel tree. This has no platform-specific code but
can use any device whose kernel driver is is able to work purely
from a device tree node. We use this to instantiate a minimal
set of devices: a GIC and some virtio-mmio transports.

[PMM:
Significantly overhauled:
* renamed user-facing machine to just "virt"
* removed the A9 support (it can't work since the A9 has no
generic timers)
* added virtio-mmio transports instead of random set of 'soc' devices
(though we retain a pl011 UART)
* instead of updating io_base as we step through adding devices,
define a memory map with an array (similar to vexpress)
* similarly, define irqmap with an array
* folded in some minor fixes from John's aarch64-support patch
* rather than explicitly doing endian-swapping on FDT cells,
use fdt APIs that let us just pass in host-endian values
and let the fdt layer take care of the swapping
* miscellaneous minor code cleanups and style fixes
