The Amlogic Meson SoCs ROM supports a boot over USB with a custom protocol.
When no other boot medium are available (or by forcing the USB mode), the
ROM sets the primary USB port as device mode and waits for a Host to
enumerate.
When enumerated, a custom protocol described at [1] permits writing to
memory and execute some specific FIP init code to run the loaded
Arm Trusted Firmware BL2 and BL3 stages before running the BL33 stage.
In this mode, we can load different binaries that can be used by U-boot
like a script image file.
This adds support for a custom USB boot stage only available when the
boot mode is USB and the script file at a pre-defined address is valid.
This support was heavily copied from the Sunxi Allwinner FEL U-Boot support.
The tool pyamlboot described at [2], permits using this boot mode on boards
exposing the first USB port, either as OTG or Host port.

This patch adds support for the Amlogic AXG SoC, which is very close from
the Amlogic GXL SoCs with :
- Same 4xCortex-A53 CPUs but clocked at 1.2GHZ max
- DDR Interface limited to DDR4 16bit
- The whole physical register address space has been moved to 0xfxxxxxxx
- The pinctrl setup has changed
- The clock tree is different enough to use a different driver
