mali: Add mali400 kernel module
Suppress previous mali symlink to external driver/gpu/mali/mali400ko folder. Add mali400ko from tag SNOWBALL_BSP_111012_2.1.

+Building the Mali Device Driver for Linux
+-----------------------------------------
+
+Build the Mali Device Driver for Linux by running the following make command:
+
+KDIR=<kdir_path> USING_MMU=<mmu_option> USING_UMP=<ump_option> \
+BUILD=<build_option> CONFIG=<your_config> make
+
+where
+ kdir_path: Path to your Linux Kernel directory
+ mmu_option: 1 = Mali MMU(s) on
+ 0 = Mali MMU(s) off
+ ump_option: 1 = Enable UMP support(*)
+ 0 = disable UMP support
+ build_option: debug = debug build of driver
+ release = release build of driver
+ your_config: Name of the sub-folder to find the required config.h(**) file
+ ("arch-" will be prepended)
+
+(*) For newer Linux Kernels, the Module.symvers file for the UMP device driver
+ must be available. The UMP_SYMVERS_FILE variable in the Makefile should
+ point to this file. This file is generated when the UMP driver is built.
+
+(**) The config.h file contains the configuration parameters needed, like where the
+ Mali GPU is located, interrupts it uses, memory and so on.
+
+The result will be a mali.ko file, which can be loaded into the Linux kernel
+by using the insmod command.
