platform: generic: andes/renesas: Add SBI EXT to check for enabling IOCP errata



I/O Coherence Port (IOCP) provides an AXI interface for connecting
external non-caching masters, such as DMA controllers. The accesses
from IOCP are coherent with D-Caches and L2 Cache.

IOCP is a specification option and is disabled on the Renesas RZ/Five
SoC (which is based on Andes AX45MP core) due to this reason IP blocks
using DMA will fail.

As a workaround for SoCs with IOCP disabled CMO needs to be handled by
software. Firstly OpenSBI configures the memory region as
"Memory, Non-cacheable, Bufferable" and passes this region as a global
shared dma pool as a DT node. With DMA_GLOBAL_POOL enabled all DMA
allocations happen from this region and synchronization callbacks are
implemented to synchronize when doing DMA transactions.

SBI_EXT_ANDES_IOCP_SW_WORKAROUND checks if the IOCP errata should be
applied to handle cache management.
