Gaël PORTAY 460da6d4b4 configs/raspberrypi2_64: new defconfig
This configuration builds an image for the Raspberry Pi 2 Rev 1.2
(64-bit).

Note: Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Rev 1.2[1] switched from BCM2836[2] to
BCM2837[3] that is 64-bit.

	BCM2836[2]

	The Broadcom chip used in the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B. The
	underlying architecture in BCM2836 is identical to BCM2835. The
	only significant difference is the removal of the ARM1176JZF-S
	processor and replacement with a quad-core Cortex-A7 cluster.

	BCM2837[3]

	This is the Broadcom chip used in the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B,
	later models of the Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, and the Raspberry Pi
	Compute Module 3. The underlying architecture of the BCM2837 is
	identical to the BCM2836. The only significant difference is the
	replacement of the ARMv7 quad core cluster with a quad-core ARM
	Cortex A53 (ARMv8) cluster.

	The ARM cores run at 1.2GHz, making the device about 50% faster
	than the Raspberry Pi 2. The VideoCore IV runs at 400MHz.
