	There are ARM systems which are essentially heterogeneous multicores where some cores implement a different ARM architecture version than other cores. A specific example is the tegra124 which boots on an ARMv4 coprocessor while most code, including most of the firmware, runs on the main ARMv7 core. To support SOCs like this, the plan is to generalize the ARM architecture so that all versions are available, and an SOC/CPU can then select what architecture variant should be used for each component of the firmware; bootblock, romstage, and ramstage.

We don't always want to use ARMv7 code when building for ARM, so we should separate out the ARMv7 code so it can be excluded, and also make it possible to include code for some other version of the architecture instead, all per build component for cases where we need more than one architecture version at a time. The tegra124 bootblock will ultimately need to be ARMv4, but until we have some ARMv4 code to switch over to we can leave it set to ARMv7.

2013-07-10	ARM: Tell the linker memset and memcpy are functions.	Gabe Black
	The memset and memcpy functions are assembled as ARM code, likely because that's the default of the assembler. Without special annotation, the assembler and linker don't know that those symbols are functions which need special handling so that ARM/thumb issues are handled properly. This change adds that annotation which gets those functions working in Coreboot which is compiled as thumb. Libpayload and depthcharge are compiled as ARM so they don't need the annotation since it just works out in ARM mode, but it's the safe thing to do in case we change that in the future. We should explicitly select ARM vs. thumb when assembling assembly files to be consistent across builds and toolchains.

2013-07-10	ARMv7: flatten arch/armv7 source tree	Stefan Reinauer
	With only 19 source files it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to create sub directories in arch/armv7, especially since the files were distributed somewhat randomly.
