[D][E][SRU][PATCH 0/1] Enable CONFIG_MVPP2 for arm64

[Po-Hsu Lin]

== SRU Justification ==
The mvpp2 is a driver for network controllers(s) in Marvell SOCs,
particularly Armada 8040.

However this driver was neither enabled as a module or a built-in for
Disco arm64.

== Fix ==
Just like what we did for armhf, set CONFIG_MVPP2 to "m" for arm64 can
solve this problem.

Corresponding configs like CONFIG_ARCH_MVEBU and CONFIG_ARCH_MULTI_V7
need to be enabled as well to meet the dependency requirement.

CONFIG_CRYPTO_DEV_SAFEXCEL and CONFIG_PCI_AARDVARK are disabled
explicitly to avoid interactive dialogues when building the kernel.

== Test ==
A test kernel for Disco ARM64 could be found here:
https://people.canonical.com/~phlin/kernel/lp-1835054-mvpp2/

User has confirmed that the patched kernel can fix this missing driver
issue.

== Regression Potential ==
Low, this patch just make this driver to be built as a module,
and we already have this enabled for armhf.
