9404fc85ab fdtgrep: Improve error handling with invalid device tree
This tool requires that the aliases node be the first node in the tree. But
when it is not, it does not handle things gracefully. In fact it crashes.

Fix this, and add a more helpful error message.

In general, a carriage return needs to execute before a line feed.
The patch is to change some serial drivers based on this rule, such

61ccd886e2 dm: usb: Clean up USB after each test
The USB subsystem has a few counters that need to be reset since they are
stored in static variables rather than driver-model data. An example is
usb_max_devs. Ultimately we should move this data into the USB uclass.

For now, make sure that USB is reset after each test, so that the counters
go back to zero.

Note: this is not a perfect solution: It a USB test fails it will exit
immediately and leave USB un-reset. The impact here is that it may cause
subsequence test failures in the same run.

96e5b03c8a dm: part: Convert partition API use to linker lists
We can use linker lists instead of explicitly declaring each function.
This makes the code shorter by avoiding switch() statements and lots of
header file declarations.

While this does clean up the code it introduces a few code issues with SPL.
SPL never needs to print partition information since this all happens from
commands. SPL mostly doesn't need to obtain information about a partition
either, except in a few cases. Add these cases so that the code will be
dropped from each partition driver when not needed. This avoids code bloat.

I think this is still a win, since it is not a bad thing to be explicit
about which features are used in SPL. But others may like to weigh in.

ea9619aed6 sf: Correct data types in stm_is_locked_sr()
The stm_is_locked_sr() function is picked from Linux kernel. For reason
unknown, the 64bit data types used by the function and present in Linux
were replaced with 32bit unsigned ones, which causes trouble.

The testcase performed was done using ST M25P80 chip.
The command used was:
 => sf protect unlock 0 0x10000

The call chain starts in stm_unlock(), which calls stm_is_locked_sr()
with negative ofs argument. This works fine in Linux, where the "ofs"
is loff_t, which is signed long long, while this fails in U-Boot, where
"ofs" is u32 (unsigned int). Because of this signedness problem, the
expression past the return statement to be incorrectly evaluated to 1,
which in turn propagates back to stm_unlock() and results in -EINVAL.

The correction is very simple, just use the correctly sized data types
with correct signedness in the function to make it work as intended.

2f0bcd4de1 malloc: use hidden visibility
When running sandbox, the following phases occur, each with different
malloc implementations or behaviors:

1) Dynamic linker execution, using the dynamic linker's own malloc()
implementation. This is fully functional.

2) After U-Boot's malloc symbol has been hooked into the GOT, but before
any U-Boot code has run. This phase is entirely non-functional, since
U-Boot's gd symbol is NULL and U-Boot's initf_malloc() and
mem_malloc_init() have not been called.

At least on Ubuntu Xenial, the dynamic linker does make both malloc() and
free() calls during this phase. Currently these free() calls crash since
they dereference gd, which is NULL.

U-Boot itself makes no use of malloc() during this phase.

3) U-Boot execution after gd is set and initf_malloc() has been called.
This is fully functional, albeit via a very simple malloc()
implementation.

4) U-Boot execution after mem_malloc_init() has been called. This is fully
functional with a complete malloc() implementation.

Furthermore, if code that called malloc() during phase 1 calls free() in
phase 3 or later, it is likely that heap corruption will occur, since
U-Boot's malloc implementation will assume the pointer is part of its own
heap, although it isn't. I have not actively observed this happening.

To prevent phase 2 from happening, this patch makes all of U-Boot's malloc
library public symbols have hidden visibility. This prevents them from
being hooked into the GOT, so only code in the U-Boot binary itself
actually calls them; any other code will call into the standard C library
malloc(). This also avoids the "furthermore" issue mentioned above.

I have seen references to this GCC pragma in blog posts from 2008, and
RHEL5's ancient gcc appears to accept it fine, so I believe it's quite
safe to use it without checking gcc version.

699946ae61 sandbox: Fix building with LLVM
- The macro __BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT__ is gcc-specific.  If it is not defined
  we'll just assume 16.  This is correct for at least the common cases
  and LLVM does not provide an equivalent macro.
- When linking U-Boot we're passing -T to the linker, and while gcc will
  just pass this along with LLVM we need to be specific.
