arch/arm64: Add lazy preempt support
arm64 is missing support for PREEMPT_RT. The main feature which is lacking is support for lazy preemption. The arch-specific entry code, thread information structure definitions, and associated data tables have to be extended to provide this support. Then the Kconfig file has to be extended to indicate the support is available, and also to indicate that support for full RT preemption is now available. Signed-off-by: Anders Roxell <anders.roxell@linaro.org>
