[PATCH v2] ARM: socfpga: add smp_ops.cpu_kill to make kexec/kdump available

Kexec_load syscall in ARM requires that machine-specific code
has the smp_ops.cpu_kill() before loading kernel image.
This patch adds the cpu_kill(), as a result, kexec reboot and
kernel crash dump become available in mach-socfpga.
