On SoCs like DRA7, OMAP5 one cannot enable hypervisor mode directly from the
u-boot because the ROM code puts the chip to supervisor mode after it
jumps to boot loader.
Patch 1: Introduces a weak function which can be overridden specific to
SoCs to switch to hypervisor mode.
Patch 2: overrides weak function in patch 1 switch cpu to hypervisor
mode using the available ROM code hook early in the boot phase before
the boot loader checks for hypervisor mode on OMAP5 based SoCs.
On some of the SoCs one cannot enable hypervisor mode directly from the
u-boot because the ROM code puts the chip to supervisor mode after it
jumps to boot loader. Hence introduce a weak function which can be
overridden based on the SoC type and switch to hypervisor mode in a
custom way.
Override the switch_to_hypervisor function to switch cpu to hypervisor
mode using the available ROM code hook early in the boot phase before
the boot loader checks for HYP mode.
