[PATCH 4/9] ARM: sti: remove pen_release and boot_lock

[Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>]

The pen_release implementation was created for Versatile platforms to
work around boot loaders that did not differentiate between the
various different secondary CPUs on this ARM development platform.
This should not be true of modern platforms where we send IPIs to
specific CPUs to wake them up.  Remove the pen_release stuff from
SoCs that make use of the per-CPU IPI mechanism.

The boot_lock is something that was required for ARM development
platforms to ensure that the delay calibration worked properly.  This
is not necessary for modern platforms that have better bus bandwidth
and do not need to calibrate the delay loop for secondary cores.
Remove the boot_lock entirely.
