arm64: Add per SoC family kernel config

Description

arm64: Add per SoC family kernel config

There is multiple reason for this :

  • This makes it easier to see which driver is needed for each SoC
  • This makes it easier to create a custom config for one SoC
  • This really reduce boot time (which some people might want)

Some explaination about the files :

  • std.arm64 contains all standard kernel option
  • std.dev contains all the standard kernel devices
  • std.<soc> contains all drivers needed to boot on this SoC family
  • <SOC> includes std.arm64, std.dev and std.<soc>
  • GENERIC includes std.arm64, std.dev and all std.<soc>
