Making vexpress_gem5_vX.dtsi depend on vexpress_gem5_vX_base.dtsi
does nothing, since vexpress_gem5_vX.dtsi is never built (much in
the same way as there is no point in making a C header depend on
another).
Fix that by making all the .dts depend on both .dtsi's.

With the introduction of the new DPU model, we need different
variations of the VExpress_GEM5_V1 platform. This splits the platform
dtsi file into a separate file for the base platform and the
HDLCD-based platform. This matches the hierarchy in RealView.py.

An ARM big.LITTLE system consists of two cpu clusters: the big
CPUs are typically complex out-of-order cores and the little
CPUs are simpler in-order ones. The fs_bigLITTLE.py script
can run a full system simulation with various number of big
and little cores and cache hierarchy. The commit also includes
two example device tree files for booting Linux on the
bigLITTLE system.

Ship aarch32 and aarch64 device trees with gem5. We currently ship
device trees as a part of the gem5 Linux kernel repository. This makes
tracking hard since device trees are supposed to be platform dependent
rather than kernel dependent (Linux considers device trees to be a
stable kernel ABI). It also makes code sharing between aarch32 and
aarch64 impossible.
This changeset implements a set of device trees for the new
VExpress_GEM5_V1 platform. The platform is described in a shared file
that is separate from the memory/CPU description. Due to differences
in how secondary CPUs are initialized, aarch32 and aarch64 use
different base files describing CPU nodes and the machine's
compatibility property.
