Karmic SRU

Justification: Enable NEON support for Freescale imx51 rev 3 boards
Impact: Applications that _could_ use NEON instructions to speedup 
encode/decode operations (youtube, etc) are forced to operate in full emulation 
mode.
Patch description: Detect NEON capability at kernel boot time and set the 
capability bit if rev >= 3.

Patch attached.
