Julien Olivain 3dbb2a0aaa arch/arm: add the Neoverse-V3AE core
This commit adds the Neoverse-V3AE (Automotive Enhanced) core, which
is an armv9.2a ISA. See: [1] [2].

This CPU support was added in GCC 15. See [3] [4] [5].

This CPU supports Aarch64 only at all exception levels (EL0 to EL3).

This CPU is present in NVIDIA Jetson Thor / Tegra T264 [6].

Note: at the time of this commit, the latest binutils v2.46 does not
include a Neoverse-V3AE support for its '-mcpu' option. See [7]. This is
not an issue because gcc will call the "as" assembler with the relevant
"-march=armv9.2-a+EXTENSION..." options. Binutils supports "armv9.2-a"
since upstream commit [8] (first included in 2.38), and the oldest
Binutils version in Buildroot is 2.44.

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at https://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
