tty: hvc: restrict HVC_DCC to ARMv6+ and ARM64
hvc_dcc drives the JTAG DCC via the ARMv6/v7 CP14 debug registers
(mrc/mcr p14, 0, rX, c0, c1/c5, 0 in asm/dcc.h). That encoding is
undefined on older ARM cores, and also on ARMv7-M, but HVC_DCC only
depends on ARM, so it can be enabled on e.g. ARM926 (ARCH_MULTI_V5),
where hvc_dcc_console_init() runs __dcc_putchar() at boot and takes an
undefined-instruction trap before the console is up:
Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1] ARM
PC is at hvc_dcc_check+0x50/0x8c
hvc_dcc_check from hvc_dcc_console_init+0x18/0x48
hvc_dcc_console_init from console_init+0x58/0x170
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
Restrict HVC_DCC to the CPUs where that encoding is valid: the
CPU_V6 || CPU_V6K || CPU_V7 set that arch/arm/include/debug/icedcc.S
guards it with, plus ARM64.
