Add SMP support for i.MX7D, including CPU hotplug support, for systems where TFA is not present. The motivation for bringing up the second i.MX7D core inside the kernel is that legacy vendor bootloaders usually do not implement PSCI support. This is a significant blocker for systems in the field that are running old bootloader versions to upgrade to a modern mainline kernel version, as only one CPU of the i.MX7D would be brought up. Bring up the second i.MX7D core inside the kernel to make the migration path to mainline kernel easier for the existing iMX7D users.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
