For the Marvell (EBU) related part

I would like to point that pj4b could be split in two flavors:
pj4b (currently used by Armada 370) and pj4b-mp (currently used
by Armada XP). The motivation for a such split would be for the errata
fix which can be different between pj4b and pj4b_mp. As we can
detect them at runtime, we don't need it from the device tree.
So we can live with a single pj4b binding.
