Add a nice little helper for memory bandwidth measurement on ARM CPUs
This tool measures the available bandwidth into the external memory and can provide valuable numbers when setting up chipset settings, priority settings or memory timings. It's specific for ARM architecture based CPUs. Signed-off-by: Juergen Beisert <jbe@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Michael Olbrich <m.olbrich@pengutronix.de>

+ Measures the available bandwidth on ARM based CPUs into the external
+ RAM. It can help to check chipset and RAM timing settings.
+ Note: it does not work on a different architecture than ARM!
