Turning off a cluster when all 4 cores of the cluster are powered off
saves power significantly. Powering off the A15 L2 alone gives around
100mW in savings. Add support for powering off the A15/A7 clusters on
exynos5420/5800.

The patch enables specific register bits which ensure that:
   - cluster L2 will be turned on before the first man is powered up.
   - last man will be turned off before the cluster L2 is turned off.
   - core is powered down before powering it up.

Remove the exynos_cluster_power_control function completely as we can
rely on the above mentioned bits rather than polling the cluster power
status register.

The patch is based on Linux-next 20140618. It has been tested on an
exynos5420-based chromebook using the "/dev/bL_switcher" interface as
well as the script provided by Nicolas Pitre and Dave Martin [1].

Patch depends on:
[v2] ARM: EXYNOS: mcpm: Don't rely on firmware's secondary_cpu_start

Surely you can add another define in mach-exynos/regs-pmu.h to better 
identify this register instead of EXYNOS_COMMON_CONFIGURATION()+8 ?

After that, you may add:

Thanks. Will fix and post v2 with your ack.
