This patch adds support for CPUs implementing the MIPSr6 ISA to the CPS
power management code. Three changes are necessary:
1. In MIPSr6, coupled coherence is necessary when CPUS implement multiple
Virtual Processors (VPs).
2. MIPSr6 virtual processors are more like real cores and cannot yield
to other VPs on the same core, so drop the MT ASE yield instruction.
3. To halt a MIPSr6 VP, the CPC VP_STOP register is used rather than the
MT ASE TCHalt CP0 register.

This patch adds code to generate entry & exit code for various low power
states available on systems based around the MIPS Coherent Processing
System architecture (ie. those with a Coherence Manager, Global
Interrupt Controller & for >=CM2 a Cluster Power Controller). States
supported are:
- Non-coherent wait. This state first leaves the coherent domain and
then executes a regular MIPS wait instruction. Power savings are
found from the elimination of coherency interventions between the
core and any other coherent requestors in the system.
- Clock gated. This state leaves the coherent domain and then gates
the clock input to the core. This removes all dynamic power from the
core but leaves the core at the mercy of another to restart its
clock. Register state is preserved, but the core can not service
interrupts whilst its clock is gated.
- Power gated. This deepest state removes all power input to the core.
All register state is lost and the core will restart execution from
its BEV when another core powers it back up. Because register state
is lost this state requires cooperation with the CONFIG_MIPS_CPS SMP
implementation in order for the core to exit the state successfully.
The code will detect which states are available on the current system
during boot & generate the entry/exit code for those states. This will
be used by cpuidle & hotplug implementations.
