Exynos542x: Fix secondary core booting for thumb

When compiled SPL for Thumb secondary cores failed to boot
at the kernel boot up. Only one core came up out of 4.
This was happening because the code relocated to the
address 0x02073000 by the primary core was an ARM asm
code which was executed by the secondary cores as if it
was a thumb code.
This patch fixes the issue of secondary cores considering
relocated code as Thumb instructions and not ARM instructions
by jumping to the relocated with the help of "bx" ARM instruction.
"bx" instruction changes the 5th bit of CPSR which allows
execution unit to consider the following instructions as ARM
instructions.
