[OE-core] [oe-core][PATCH v2 1/1] Add a tune file for cortexa53, valid for 32 bits and 64 bits

[Herve Jourdain]

Hi Khem,

Unfortunately, it has a few issues in 32bits mode...
Basically, cortex-a53 is an armv8+crc...
I'm sending an updated version - v3 - soon.
But I'll run the tune checker first. At least, the new version I'm coming up with and plan to send soon seems to work fine now with 32bits - and I shouldn't have broken the 64bits support in the process, but I will also compile it.

Herve

This seems fine to me. There is a tune checker that Martin has, it would be good to run that and see if this new tune is tested.
