Add support for J7200 Common Processor Board.
The EVM architecture is very similar to J721E as follows:

Common Processor Board
Common Processor board is the baseboard that has most of the actual
connectors, power supply etc. A SOM (System on Module) is plugged on
to the common processor board and this contains the SoC, PMIC, DDR and
basic high speed components necessary for functionality.
Note:
* The minimum configuration required to boot up the board is System On
Module(SOM) + Common Processor Board.
* Since there is just a single SOM and Common Processor Board, we are
maintaining common processor board as the base dts and SOM as the dtsi
that we include. In the future as more SOM's appear, we should move
common processor board as a dtsi and include configurations as dts.
* All daughter cards beyond the basic boards shall be maintained as
overlays.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
