Please use this version instead.  The runtime hook may now indicate if 
it did initialize smp_ops or not.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: Enable selection of SMP operations at boot time

Add a new 'smp_init' hook to machine_desc so platforms can specify a
function to be used to setup smp ops instead of having a statically
defined value.  The hook must return true when smp_ops are initialized.
If false the static mdesc->smp_ops will be used by default.
