I see you are adding cortex-a57 here, but there are actually a couple
of other cores that we could add here. It also makes sense to sort these
alphanumerically I think, and move arm10 after arm9, as well as arm11
before cortex.

The ones that I find missing but actually used are:

	"arm,cortex-a53"
	"arm,cortex-m0"
	"arm,cortex-m0+"
	"arm,cortex-m1"
	"arm,cortex-m3"
	"arm,cortex-m4"
	"arm,cortex-r4"
	"arm,cortex-r5"
	"arm,cortex-r7"
	"marvell,pj4"
	"qcom,scorpion"
	"qcom,krait"

There are also a number of faraday cores that we don't support in
Linux (fa626, fa626te, fa726te, ...), not sure if we should attempt to
list them all here. The only one that is being worked on at the moment
is based on fa526.

There are also a number of 64 bit cores that other companies have announced,
but I'm not sure if the names are final yet.
