For HI3519, there is really no special platform code. But HI35xx and HI36xx soc families
belong to different product lines in hisilicon. HI35xx family also composes of various
architectures socs(single core, smp and big-little). So I think it may be clear to have
separate arch definitions.

Could you give me more suggestions about this?  Thank you!
