The 'arm,armv8' compatible string is only for software models. It adds
little value otherwise and is inconsistently used as a fallback on some
platforms. Remove it from those platforms.

This fixes warnings generated by the DT schema.

armsoc folks, Please apply directly.

Note that there's still a case left in msm8998 that needs a new 
compatible string.

ARM SoC maintainers, At least on a quick look (I could be wrong), I
think we don't have any explicit processor bindings documentation.

However, most of SoC folks seem to key off matches else where I
guess..

Not sure, while at this, you if you are planning on fixing up
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/arm-boards:
compatible = "arm,cortex-a53","arm,armv8";
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/cpu-capacity.txt:
compatible = "arm,cortex-a53","arm,armv8";

Anyways, for TI SoC:

We are just checking if removing the "brcm,vulcan" string has any
impact on early silicon revisions we want to support (see also
BRCM_CPU_PART_VULCAN).

Maybe you make this a separate change?
