[PATCH V3] ARM: imx: use outer_disable/resume for low power

Use outer_disable/resume for suspend/resume and low power idle.
With the two APIs used, code could be easy to extend to introduce
l2c_write_sec for i.MX platforms when moving Linux Kernel
runs in non-secure world.

The cache sync operation and l2c310_early_resume in suspend-imx6.S
are kept. According to PL310 TRM for dormant mode: "The external
power controller asserts the reset. Ensure the cache controller
is placed back into run mode prior to the L1 masters.". So keep
l2c310_early_resume.

Another reason is alought L2 controller lose power, L2 memory not lose
power. If l2c310_early_resume removed, outer_resume will do invalidation
which may corrupt data. To keep safe, the cache sync operation is also
kept.

V3:
 Continue fix 6SX low power idle. Because L2 memory not lose power,
 outer_disable seems not clearly flush all the data or flush l1 -> flush l2
 ->cache sync must be followed, outer_resume will invalidate
 the cache, which corrupt data and cause issues. So in V3, only
 add outer_disable/resume to make it simple.
 Add more commit log.
 Based on Shawn/for-next.
V2:
  Fix 6SX booting. The V1 patch does not take 6SX low power idle into
  consideration.
