This is a port of the official PLL errata workaround from Freescale to
mainline u-boot.
The PLL's in the i.MX51 processor can go out of lock due to a metastable
condition in an analog flip-flop when used at high frequencies.
This workaround implements an undocumented feature in the PLL (dither
mode), which causes the effect of this failure to be much lower (in terms
of frequency deviation), avoiding system failure, or at least decreasing
the likelihood of system failure.

The patch adds basic board support for TI's OMAP-L138 based
Hawkboard. This board is pretty similar to the da850 EVM. Support for
nand and network access is added in this version.
The following bootup procedure is used.
At reset, the Rom Boot Loader(RBL), initialises the ddr and the nand
controllers and copies the second stage bootloader(nand_spl) to
RAM. The secondary bootloader then copies u-boot from a predefined
location in the nand flash to the RAM, and passes control to the
u-boot image.
Three config options are supported
* hawkboard_config - Used to create the u-boot.bin. Tftp the
u-boot.bin image to the RAM from u-boot, and flash to the nand flash
at address 0xe0000.
* hawkboard_nand_config - Used to generate the secondary
bootloader(nand_spl) image. This creates an elf file u-boot-spl
under nand_spl/. Create an AIS signed image using this file, and
flash it to the nand flash at address 0x20000. The ais file should
fit in one block.
* hawkboard_uart_config - This is same as the first image, but with
the TEXT_BASE as expected by the RBL(0xc1080000). Create the AIS

The TI DA850/OMAP-L138/AM18x EVM can be populated with devices
having different maximum allowed CPU clock rating.
The maximum clock the chip can support can only be determined from
the label on the package (not software readable).
Introduce a method to pass the maximum allowed clock rate information
to kernel using ATAG_REVISION. The kernel uses this information to
determine the maximum cpu clock rate reachable using cpufreq.
Note that U-Boot itself does not set the CPU clock rate. The CPU
clock is setup by a primary bootloader ("UBL"). The rate setup by
UBL could be different from the maximum clock rate supported by the
device.

When this define was introduced, the idea was to provide a soft
migration path for ARM boards to get adapted to the new relocation
support. However, other recent changes led to a different
implementation (ELF relocation), where this no longer works. By now
CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC does not only not help any more, but it
actually hurts because it obfuscates the actual code by sprinkling it
with lots of dead and non-working debris.
So let's make a clean cut and drop CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC.

Add the ability to not report an I2C POST error for a set of given I2C
addresses on bootup. This is useful for cases when a device may or may
not be present, and neither case is considered an error. For example:
- Some form factors such as XMC and Compact PCI Express have an I2C
EEPROM whose address changes based on geographical address. Eg
installed in one slot its EEPROM address is, 0x50, in another its
0x51, etc. This allows multiple devices to have their EEPROMs present
on the same I2C bus. Thus the I2C devices present for an XMC or
CPCIe card depend on if and where other cards are installed in the
same system.
- Some cards have optional I2C devices. Eg one hardware build
configuration has different I2C devices than another and software
can't determine if the optional device should be present or not.
- Some cards have optional daughtercards with I2C devices on them.
- I2C EEPROMs address range depends on their size. Its possible to
support differently size EEPROMs by only probing the EEPROM's base
address and ignoring the other addresses that are impacted by its
size.
A new CONFIG_SYS_POST_I2C_IGNORES define has been added which specifies
a list of I2C addresses for the I2C POST to ignore.

The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands. Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".
This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:
int main (int argc, char **argv)

/* ====> */ while (*++*argv) {
switch (**argv) {
case 'd':
debug++;
break;
...

usage ();
}
}
}
...
}
The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell. With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
error: increment of read-only location '*argv'
N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:
