[PATCH v7 06/11] ARM: mvebu: Low level function to disable HW coherency support

When going to deep idle we need to disable the SoC snooping (aka
hardware coherency support). Playing with the coherency fabric
requires to use assembly code to be sure that the compiler doesn't
reorder the instructions nor do wrong optimization.
