Compared to the Armada 3700, the Armada 7K and 8K are much more on the
high-end side: they use a dual Cortex-A72 or a quad Cortex-A72, as
opposed to the Cortex-A53 for the Armada 3700.
The Armada 7K and 8K also use a fairly unique architecture, internally
they are composed of several components:
- One AP (Application Processor), which contains the processor itself
and a few core hardware blocks. The AP used in the Armada 7K and 8K
is called AP806, and is available in two configurations:
dual Cortex-A72 and quad Cortex-A72.
- One or two CP (Communication Processor), which contain most of the I/O
interfaces (SATA, PCIe, Ethernet, etc.). The 7K family chips have one
CP, while the 8K family chips integrate two CPs, providing two times
the number of I/O interfaces available in the CP.
The CP used in the 7K and 8K is called CP110.
All in all, this gives the following combinations:
- Armada 7020, which is a dual Cortex-A72 with one CP
- Armada 7040, which is a quad Cortex-A72 with one CP
- Armada 8020, which is a dual Cortex-A72 with two CPs
- Armada 8040, which is a quad Cortex-A72 with two CPs
This patch adds basic support for this ARMv8 based SoC into U-Boot.
Future patches will integrate other device drivers and board support,
starting with the Marvell DB-88F7040 development board.

- USB 3.0
- SATA 3.0
- PCIe 2.0
- 2 x Gigabit Ethernet 1Gbps / 2.5Gbps

This patch adds basic support for the Armada 375. Please note that
currently the SerDes and DDR3 init code for the A375 is not
included / enabled. This will be done in a later, follow-up patch.
Right now, this A375 mainline U-Boot can only be used by chainloading
it via the original Marvell U-Boot. This can be done via this
command:
=> tftpboot 00800000 a375/u-boot-dtb.bin;go 00800000

Until now, the SoC selection for the ARCH_MVEBU platforms has been done
in the config header. Using CONFIG_ARMADA_XP in a non-clear way. As
it needed to get selected for AXP and A38x based boards. This patch
now changes this to move the SoC selection to Kconfig. And also
uses CONFIG_ARCH_MVEBU as a common define for both AXP and A38x.
This makes things a bit clearer - especially for new board additions.
Additionally the defines CONFIG_SYS_MVEBU_DDR_AXP and
CONFIG_SYS_MVEBU_DDR_A38X are replaced with the already available
CONFIG_ARMADA_38X and CONFIG_ARMADA_XP.
And CONFIG_DDR3 is removed, as its not referenced anywhere.

This patch introduces the SDRAM scrubbing for ECC enabled board
to fill/initialize the ECC bytes. This is done via the XOR engine
to speed up the process. The scrubbing is a 2-stage process:
1) SPL scrubs the area 0 - 0x100.0000 (16MiB) for the main U-Boot
2) U-Boot scrubs the remaining SDRAM area(s)

This code is ported from the Marvell bin_hdr code into mainline
SPL U-Boot. It needs to be executed very early so that the devices
connected to the serdes PHY are configured correctly.

With the upcoming addition of the Armada 38x SPL support, which is not
compatible to the Armada XP SERDES init code, we need to introduce a new
directory infrastructure. So lets move the AXP serdes init code into
a new directory. This way the A38x code can be added in a clean way.

Now that the mach-mvebu directory exists and is used by Armada XP we can
move the mvebu-common files into this directory as well.

Move arch/arm/cpu/armv7armada-xp/* -> arch/arm/mach-mvebu/*
Since this platform will be extended to support other Marvell SoC's as
well, lets rename it directly to mvebu.
This will be used by the upcoming Armada 38x suport (A38x).
