[PATCH] Documentation: devicetree: arm: add lpae property to cpus/cpu bindings

[Olof Johansson]

While the LPAE capability is determined by the kernel today, it is still
useful to be able to specify the feature in the device tree. There is
precedence from other architectures for this.

My personal motive for this is to be able to tell which boards are
work even trying to boot an LPAE kernel on, since we don't disable the
platforms that are based on A8/A9 when LPAE is turned on. I'll add dtsi
patches for A7/A15-based platforms once the binding is settled.

I don't think it's worth trying to add those dependencies in Kconfig,
by the way -- it'd be pretty verbose and churny.
