10375ccc67 arc: use common make variables for dtb builds
Use dtb-y and always make variables to build dtbs instead of explicit
dtbs rule. This is in preparation to support building all dtbs.

fd1557923b ARC: [plat_arcfpga]->[plat_sim]
* Remove remanants of legacy ARC FPGA platforms (AA4, ML509...)
* Only nsim simulation platform is left, rename platform accordingly
* AA4 DT stuff is compatible with nsim for ARC700 so rename it too

a89516b31c ARC: [kbuild] Avoid DTB rebuilds if DTS are untouched
Currently, for every ARC kernel build I see the following:

--------------->8-----------------
  DTB    arch/arc/boot/dts/angel4.dtb.S
  AS      arch/arc/boot/dts/angel4.dtb.o
  LD      arch/arc/boot/dts/built-in.o
rm arch/arc/boot/dts/angel4.dtb.S        <-- forces rebuild next iter
  CHK     kernel/config_data.h
--------------->8-----------------

This is because *.dts.S is intermediate file in dtb generation and is by
default deleted by make which needs a ".SECONDARY" hint to NOT do so.

This could have ideally been done in scripts/Makefile.lib - for benefit
of all, however .SECONDARY doesn't seem to work with wildcards.

Thanks to Stephen for suggesting .SECONDARY (vs .PRECIOUS) and making
that work using a non wildcard version in arch makefile.

Thanks to James Hogan for pointing out that *.dtb.S now needs to be
added to clean-files

abe11ddea1 ARC: [plat-arcfpga]: Enabling DeviceTree for Angel4 board
* arc-uart platform device now populated dynamically, using
  of_platform_populate() - applies to any other device whatsoever.

* uart in turn requires incore arc-intc to be also present in DT

* A irq-domain needs to be instantiated for IRQ requests by DT probed
  device (e.g. arc-uart)

TODO: switch over to linear irq domain once all devs have been
      transitioned to DT

999159a538 ARC: [DeviceTree] Basic support
This is minimal infrastructure needed for devicetree work.
It uses an a sample "skeleton" devicetree - embedded in kernel image -
to print the board, manufacturer by parsing the top-level "compatible"
string.

As of now we don't need any additional "board" specific "machine_desc".

TODO: support interpreting the command line as boot-loader passed dtb
