does it work with -mcpu=cortex-a15? I've tried crosstool as versions
2.23.52.20130913, 2.24.0.20141017 and 2.25.51.20150518, and they
all seem to behave as expected, failing with -mcpu=cortex-a9 and
marvell-pj4 but succeeding with -mcpu=cortex-a15 or marvell-pj4+idiv.
I've also found some /proc/cpuinfo output to cross-reference SoCs
to their core names.
