This adds AT_ARM64_MIDR aux vector type and passes down the midr system register. This is alternative to MIDR_EL1 part of http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2015-July/358995.html. It allows for faster access to midr_el1 than going through a trap and does not exist if the set of cores are not the same.
