[v1,1/2] target/arm: Add a cluster size property

The cortex A53 TRM specifices that bits 24 and 25 of the L2CTLR register
specify the number of cores present and not the number of processors. To
report this correctly on machines with multiple CPU clusters (ARM's
big.LITTLE or Xilinx's ZynqMP) we need to allow the machine to overwrite
this value. To do this let's add an optional property.

"the number of cores in the processor, not the total number of cores
in the system".

I think having arm_cpu_realizefn do
    if (cpu->core_count == -1) {
        cpu->core_count = smp_cpus;
    }

would be neater than doing that check when the register is read.

thanks

Yes, that was left over. I'll fix.

Ok will fix. I'll send a V2 out straight away, as today is my last day
and it'd be great if I could get this done.

Sure -- if there are any further nits in v2 I'll just fix them
up when I put it into target-arm.next.
