- Add support for four new ports, UART2-UART5.
- Add build options to allow console device configuration.
- Segregate device-specific definitions from the device family files. X macros
are used to maintain a single source of truth and have the configuration
done at compile-time
- Add raspberrypi_uart_init() to make it convenient for users to install uart
devices

The clock from the ARM timer is derived from the system clock. This clock can
change dynamically e.g. if the system goes into reduced power or in low power
mode. Thus the clock speed adapts to the overall system performance
capabilities. For accurate timing it is recommended to use the system timers.
if BSP_CLOCK_USE_SYSTEMTIMER = 1, use the System Timer, otherwise use the ARM
Timer.
This patch adds new Raspberry pi 4B AArch64 BSP to the RTEMS Family. Currently
only LP64 ABI is supported. ILP32 is not supported. RAM starts from 0x80000 in
64Bit kernel mode and MMU from 0x0. All Raspberrypi Pi 4B models and Raspberry
Pi 400 are supported. All the IRQs are similiar to the older Raspberry pi 2 ARM
BSP.
Raspberry Pi 4B has 2 types of UARTs. Only PL011 serial is supported currently.
Mini-UART is not supported. Mini-UART is default UART on the board so it needs
to be disabled by adding "dtoverlay=disable-bt" to the config.txt. No support
for additional 4 PL011-UARTs on the board.
The raspberrypi.h includes many of the address required for the future
development of the RPi 4B BSP. This includes peripherals, ARM Timer, VideoCore
Timer, Watchdog, Mailbox, AUX, FIQs and IRQs.
