ARM: mvebu: prepare coherency code to support more SOCs
The code that handles the coherency fabric of Armada 370 and Armada XP in arch/arm/mach-mvebu/coherency.c made the assumption that there was only one type of coherency fabric. Unfortunately, it turns out that upcoming SoCs have a slightly different coherency unit. In preparation to the introduction of the coherency support for more SoCs, this commit: * Introduces a data associated to the compatible string in the compatible string match table, so that the code can differantiate the variant of coherency unit being used. * Separates the coherency unit initialization code into its own function.
