arch/arm: add armv8.2a cortex-based cores
The armv8.2a generation is a cumulative extension to armv8.1a.
Since gcc correctly enables the appropriate extensions based on the core
name, we don't really need to introduce a separate config for armv8.2a,
and we can piggyback on armv8a.
In theory, gcc supports those cores in arm mode. However, configuring
gcc thusly generates a non-working gcc that constantly whines:
cc1: warning: switch -mcpu=cortex-a55 conflicts with -march=armv8.2-a switch
It is to be noted that the -march flag is internal to gcc. It is not
something that Buildroot did set when configuring gcc; Buildroot only
ever sets --with-cpu (not --with-arch).
Additionally, uClibc fails to build entirely (unsure if this is caused
by the above, or if it is a separate issue, though), with:
#### Your compiler does not support TLS and you are trying to build uClibc-ng
#### with NPTL support. Upgrade your binutils and gcc to versions which
#### support TLS for your architecture. Do not contact uClibc-ng maintainers
#### about this problem.
Glibc and musl have not been tested in arm mode, so maybe we could have
a toolchain that eventually works (or at least, pretends to be working),
but we decided it was not worth the effort.
Thus, we restrict those cores to AArch64 mode only.
