[RFC PATCH 14/14] ARM: vexpress: add device tree build system and dtbuImage

The introduction of device tree in ARM Linux kernel tree requires the
definition of a new class of machines. Board init files should be split
in DT and non-DT (static) and the Kernel build system and config files
should be updated accordingly. To allow u-boot to recognize and boot
images with a device tree embedded stub, a new image is required
(dtbuImage), which is a u-boot compressed image with an assembly stub
containing the compiled flattened device tree.
This patch modifies the kernel build and config system to take into
account the Versatile Express device tree machine port and adds a new
image file suitable for booting a DT kernel with u-boot.
An appropriate machine config is added encompassing all config
parameters needed to compile in C units for DT booting on Versatile
Express.

This enables support for systems with more than one CPU. If you have
a system with only one CPU, like most personal computers, say N. If
