	This adds support for Microwatt systems with more than one core, and updates the device tree for a 2-core version. The secondary CPUs are started and sent to spin in __secondary_hold very early on, in the platform probe function. The reason for doing this is so that they are there when smp_release_cpus() gets called, which is before the platform init_smp function or even the platform setup_arch function gets called. Note that having two CPUs in the device tree doesn't preclude operation with only one CPU. The SYSCON_CPU_CTRL register has a read-only field which indicates the number of CPU cores, so microwatt_init_smp() will only start as many CPU cores as are present in the system, and any extra CPU device-tree nodes will just be ignored.

2022-06-18	powerpc/microwatt: wire up rng during setup_arch()	Jason A. Donenfeld
	The platform's RNG must be available before random_init() in order to be useful for initial seeding, which in turn means that it needs to be called from setup_arch(), rather than from an init call. Fortunately, each platform already has a setup_arch function pointer, which means it's easy to wire this up. This commit also removes some noisy log messages that don't add much.
