[PATCH] ARM: extend SMP_ON_UP detection for A5 MPCore devices with 1 CPU

[Stefan Agner]

On the non-SMP Cortex-A5 Vybrid SoC detection of SMP_ON_UP fails.
Some variants of this SoC have a secondary Cortex-M4 CPU, which
might be the reason the MPIDR register reporting a multiprocessor
system.

The code introduced in bc41b8724f ("ARM: 7846/1: Update SMP_ON_UP
code to detect A9MPCore with 1 CPU devices") proved applicable
for Vybrid too: The SCU register number of CPUs reports b00
indicating only one A5 MPCore being present in the system. This
patch lets Cortex-A5 CPU's use the SCU check too.

On the Vybrid platform this did not lead to CPU faults (so far),
but is_smp checks evaluate to true which is not optimal
performance wise.
