The i.MX 6SoloX SoC is a hybrid multi-core processor composed by one
Cortex A9 core and one Cortex M4 core.
Zephyr was ported to run on the M4 core. In a later release, it will
also communicate with the A9 core (running Linux) via RPMsg.
The low level drivers come from NXP FreeRTOS BSP and are located at
ext/hal/nxp/imx. More details can be found at ext/hal/nxp/imx/README
The A9 core is responsible to load the M4 binary application into the
RAM, put the M4 in reset, set the M4 Program Counter and Stack Pointer,
and get the M4 out of reset.
The A9 can perform these steps at bootloader level after the Linux
system has booted.

Adds a shim layer around the imx gpio driver to adapt it to the Zephyr
gpio interface.
For now only the port 4 was tested.

Adds a shim layer around the imx uart driver to adapt it to the Zephyr
serial interface.
Modem mode was introduce to control it as DCE and DTE and can be
configured in the device tree:
modem-mode:
type: int
category: required
description: Set the UART Port to modem mode 0 (dce) 1 (dte)
generation: define
For now only the UART 2 was tested.

This code component is used to add Zephyr support on iMX7 processors,
exclusively on Cortex M4 core, and to speed up the development process
it was decided to have it based on NXP FreeRTOS BSP implementation.
The source code was imported from the following folders:
FreeRTOS_BSP_1.0.1_iMX7D/platform/drivers
FreeRTOS_BSP_1.0.1_iMX7D/platform/devices
This source code depends on headers and sources from zephyr:
