At present fdt blob or argument address being passed to kernel is fixed at
compile time using macro CONFIG_SYS_SPL_ARGS_ADDR. FDT blob from
different media like nand, nor flash are copied to the address pointed
by the macro.
The problem is, it makes args/fdt blob compulsory to copy which is not required
in cases like for NOR Flash. This patch removes this limitation.

At present malloc_base/_limit/_ptr are not initialised in spl_init() when
we call spl_init() in board_init_f(). This is due to a recent change aimed
at avoiding overwriting the malloc area set up on some boards by
spl_relocate_stack_gd().
However if CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_MALLOC_SIMPLE_LEN is not defined, we now
skip setting up the memory area in spl_init() which is obviously wrong.
To fix this, add a new function spl_early_init() which can be called in
board_init_f().

This reverts commit 8c36e99f21.
There is misunderstanding in commit 8c36e99f21 ("armv8: release
slave cores from CPU_RELEASE_ADDR"). How to bring the slave cores
into U-Boot proper is platform-specific. So, it should be cared
in SoC/board files instead of common/spl/spl.c. As you see SPL
is the acronym of Secondary Program Loader, there is generally
something that runs before SPL (the First one is usually Boot ROM).
How to wake up slave cores from the Boot ROM is really SoC specific.
So, the intention for the spin table support is to bring the slave
cores into U-Boot proper in an SoC specific manner. (this must be
done after relocation. see below.)
If you bring the slaves into SPL, it is SoC own code responsibility
to transfer them to U-Boot proper. The Spin Table defines the
interface between a boot-loader and Linux kernel. It is unrelated
to the interface between SPL and U-Boot proper.
One more thing is missing in the commit; spl_image->entry_point
points to the entry address of U-Boot *before* relocation. U-Boot
relocates itself between board_init_f() and board_init_r(). This
means the master CPU sees the different copy of the spin code than
the slave CPUs enter. The spin_table_update_dt() protects the code
*after* relocation. As a result, the slave CPUs spin in unprotected
code, which leads to unstable behavior.

spl_init on some boards is called after stack and heap relocation, on
some platforms spl_relocate_stack_gd is called to handle setting the
limit to its value CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R_MALLOC_SIMPLE_LEN when simple
SPL malloc is enabled during relocation. spl_init should then not
re-assign the old pre-relocation limit when this is defined.

When using ARMv8 with ARMV8_SPIN_TABLE=y, we want the slave cores to
wait on spin_table_cpu_release_addr, until the Linux kernel will "wake" them
by writing to that location. The address of spin_table_cpu_release_addr is
transferred to the kernel using the device tree that is updated by
spin_table_update_dt().
However, if we also use SPL, then the slave cores are stuck at
CPU_RELEASE_ADDR instead and as a result, never wake up.
This patch releases the slave cores by writing spl_image->entry_point to
CPU_RELEASE_ADDR location before the end of the SPL code
(at jump_to_image_no_args()).
That way, the slave cores will start to execute the u-boot and will get to
the spin-table code and wait on the correct address
(spin_table_cpu_release_addr).

When CONFIG_SPL_STACK_R is enabled, and spl_init() is called before
board_init_r(), spl_relocate_stack_gd() will move global_data to a new
place in memory. This affects driver model since it uses a list for the
uclasses. Unless this is updated the list will become invalid. When
looking for a non-existent uclass, such as when adding a new one, the loop
in uclass_find() may continue forever, thus causing a hang.

There is no need for this to be in the BSS region. By moving it we can delay
use of BSS in SPL. This is useful for machines where the BSS region is not
in writeable space. On 64-bit x86, SPL runs from SPI flash and it is easier
to eliminate BSS use than link SPL to run with BSS at a particular
cache-as-RAM (CAR) address.

Allwinner devices support SPI flash as one of the possible
bootable media type. The SPI flash chip needs to be connected
to SPI0 pins (port C) to make this work. More information is
available at:
https://linux-sunxi.org/Bootable_SPI_flash
This patch adds the initial support for booting from SPI flash.
The existing SPI frameworks are not used in order to reduce the
SPL code size. Right now the SPL size grows by ~370 bytes when
CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUNXI option is enabled.
While there are no popular Allwinner devices with SPI flash at
the moment, testing can be done using a SPI flash module (it
can be bought for ~2$ on ebay) and jumper wires with the boards,
which expose relevant pins on the expansion header. The SPI flash
chips themselves are very cheap (some prices are even listed as
low as 4 cents) and should not cost much if somebody decides to
design a development board with an SPI flash chip soldered on
the PCB.
Another nice feature of the SPI flash is that it can be safely
accessed in a device-independent way (since we know that the
boot ROM is already probing these pins during the boot time).
And if, for example, Olimex boards opted to use SPI flash instead
of EEPROM, then they would have been able to have U-Boot installed
in the SPI flash now and boot the rest of the system from the SATA
hard drive. Hopefully we may see new interesting Allwinner based
development boards in the future, now that the software support
for the SPI flash is in a better shape :-)
Testing can be done by enabling the CONFIG_SPL_SPI_SUNXI option
in a board defconfig, then building U-Boot and finally flashing
the resulting u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin binary over USB OTG with
a help of the sunxi-fel tool:
sunxi-fel spiflash-write 0 u-boot-sunxi-with-spl.bin
The device needs to be switched into FEL (USB recovery) mode first.
The most suitable boards for testing are Orange Pi PC and Pine64.
Because these boards are cheap, have no built-in NAND/eMMC and
expose SPI0 pins on the Raspberry Pi compatible expansion header.
The A13-OLinuXino-Micro board also can be used.

When CONFIG_OF_PLATDATA is enabled, we cannot use the u-boot,dm-pre-reloc
device tree property since the device tree is not available. However,
dt-platdata.c only includes devices which would have been present in the
device tree, and we can assume that all such devices are needed for SPL.
If they were not needed, they would have been omitted to save space.
So in this case, bind all devices regardless of the u-boot,dm-pre-reloc
setting. This avoids needing to add a DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC to every driver,
thus affecting U-Boot proper also.
