[PATCH 0/3] ARM: bcm2836: Move SMP startup code to arch/arm

This patch series move the SMP startup code of BCM2836 and
BCM2837 to the right place. There was already a patch from Marc Zyngier [1],
but it breaks SMP for RPI 3 on 32-bit (other cores stays offline).

I based my patch series on Marc's patch with the following changes:
 * define enable-method and use it in the dts files
 * place SMP code into platsmp.c
 * rename bcm2836_smp_boot_secondary() to bcm2836_boot_secondary()
 * use of_find_compatible_node() instead of of_find_matching_node()

This series requires the patch "ARM: dts: bcm283x: Move the BCM2837
DT contents from arm64 to arm."
