ARM: kernel: update cpu_suspend code to use cache LoUIS operations
In processors like A15/A7 L2 cache is unified and integrated within the
processor cache hierarchy, so that it is not considered an outer cache
anymore. For processors like A15/A7 flush_cache_all() ends up cleaning
all cache levels up to Level of Coherency (LoC) that includes
the L2 unified cache.
When a single CPU is suspended (CPU idle) a complete L2 clean is not
required, so generic cpu_suspend code must clean the data cache using the
newly introduced cache LoUIS function.
The context and stack pointer (context pointer) are cleaned to main memory
using cache area functions that operate on MVA and guarantee that the data
is written back to main memory (perform cache cleaning up to the Point of
Coherency - PoC) so that the processor can fetch the context when the MMU
is off in the cpu_resume code path.
outer_cache management remains unchanged.
