5bef6fd79f spi: Add designware master SPI DM driver used on SoCFPGA
This patch adds the driver for the Designware master SPI controller. This
IP core is integrated on the Altera SoCFPGA. This implementation is a
driver model (DM) implementation. So multiple SPI drivers can be used.
Thats necessary, since SoCFPGA also integrates the Cadence QSPI controller
used to connect the SPI NOR flashes. Without DM, using multiple SPI
drivers is not possible.

This driver is very loosely based on the Linux driver. Most of the Linux
driver is removed. Only the polling loop for the transfer is really used
from this driver, as we don't support interrupts and DMA right now.

This is tested on the SoCrates SoCFPGA board using the SPI pins on the
P14 header.

10e8bf88c0 spi: Add Cadence QSPI DM driver used by SoCFPGA
This driver is cloned from the Altera Rockerboard.org U-Boot
repository. I used this git tag: ACDS14.0.1_REL_GSRD_RC2. With Some
modification to support the U-Boot driver model (DM).

As mentioned above, in this new version I ported this driver to the
new driver model (DM). One big advantage of this move is that now
multiple SPI drivers can be enabled on one platform. And since the
SoCFPGA also has the Designware SPI master controller integrated,
this feature is really needed to support both controllers.

Because of this, this series needs the DT support for SoCFPGA
to be applied. For DT based probing in the SPI DM.

c60e1f2547 dm: sandbox: Add a SPI emulation uclass
U-Boot includes a SPI emulation driver already but it is not explicit, and
is hidden in the SPI flash code.

Conceptually with sandbox's SPI implementation we have a layer which
creates SPI bus transitions and a layer which interprets them, currently
only for SPI flash. The latter is actually an emulation, and it should be
possible to add more than one emulation - not just SPI flash.

Add a SPI emulation uclass so that other emulations can be plugged in to
support different types of emulated devices on difference buses/chip
selects.

This driver supports writes of up to 64 bytes at a time, the limit
for the controller. Future work will improve this.

b19f57491a tegra: add SPI SLINK driver
Add driver for tegra SPI "SLINK" style driver.  This controller is
similar to the tegra20 SPI "SFLASH" controller.  The difference is
that the SLINK controller is a genernal purpose SPI controller and the
SFLASH controller is special purpose and can only talk to FLASH
devices.  In addition there are potentially many instances of an SLINK
controller on tegra and only a single instance of SFLASH.  Tegra20 is
currently ths only version of tegra that instantiates an SFLASH
controller.

This driver supports basic PIO mode of operation and is configurable
(CONFIG_OF_CONTROL) to be driven off devicetree bindings.  Up to 4
devices per controller may be attached, although typically only a
single chip select line is exposed from tegra per controller so in
reality this is usually limited to 1.

To enable this driver, use CONFIG_TEGRA_SLINK

6d8962e814 Switch from archive libraries to partial linking
Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils.  As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".

This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.

The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o".  This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.

This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols.  Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.
