ARM: mpu: Allow enabling of the MPU via kconfig

Browse Source 
Allows the user to select MPU support when compiling for ARM processors
that support the PMSAv7.

This ensures that CONFIG_SMP depends on the MPU in the case that no MMU
is present.

CONFIG_SMP_ON_UP is not implemented for nommu, so introduce an MMU
dependency there.

Some ARM systems without an MMU have instead a Memory Protection
Unit (MPU) that defines the type and permissions for regions of
memory.
If your CPU has an MPU then you should choose 'y' here unless you
know that you do not want to use the MPU.
