Ubuntu Test and Validation of the big.LITTLE ARM Reference Switcher

Registered by Ricardo Salveti

Test and validate the big.LITTLE ARM Reference Switcher, integrated with Fast Model and running with the Ubuntu based rootfs.

Test steps and descriptions for the ARM Reference Switcher described at:
https://docs.google.com/a/linaro.org/document/d/14Kta4wQ0QdKlO_iQ41EolkLm-pxw_Ggh_OW-ca6BEvM

Goals:
 - Automate and execute the test cases and scenarios described at https://docs.google.com/a/linaro.org/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AroPySpr4FnEdGttYkhCUGVzZ2JOS0tGaU1QUm9wOHc#gid=0
 - Report back all issues at the ARM Reference Switcher project
 - Integrate the automated test cases at Lava, for continous validation and further validation with the Integrated Switcher
