[PATCH 1/6] ARM: stm32: prepare stm32 family to welcome armv7 architecture

From: Ludovic Barre <ludovic.barre at st.com>

This patch prepares the STM32 machine for the integration of Cortex-A
based microprocessor (MPU), on top of the existing Cortex-M
microcontroller family (MCU). Since both MCUs and MPUs are sharing
common hardware blocks we can keep using ARCH_STM32 flag for most of
them. If a hardware block is specific to one family we can use either
ARCH_STM32_MCU or ARCH_STM32_MPU flag.

 Introduction
 ------------
 
-  The STMicroelectronics family of Cortex-M based MCUs are supported by the
-  'STM32' platform of ARM Linux. Currently only the STM32F429 (Cortex-M4)
-  and STM32F746 (Cortex-M7) are supported.

+  The STMicroelectronics STM32 family of Cortex-A microprocessors (MPUs) and
+  Cortex-M microcontrollers (MCUs) are supported by the 'STM32' platform of
+  ARM Linux.
 
 Configuration
 -------------
 
-  A generic configuration is provided for STM32 family, and can be used as the
-  default by
+  For MCUs, use the provided default configuration:
 	make stm32_defconfig
+  For MPUs, use multi_v7 configuration:
