As part of testing booting Linux kernels on Rockchip devices, it was
discovered by Ziyuan Xu and Sandy Patterson that we had multiple and for
some cases incomplete isb definitions. This was causing a failure to
boot of the Linux kernel.
In order to solve this problem as well as cover any corner cases that we
may also have had a number of changes are made in order to consolidate
things. First, <asm/barriers.h> now becomes the source of isb/dsb/dmb
definitions. This however introduces another complexity. Due to
needing to build SPL for 32bit tegra with -march=armv4 we need to borrow
the __LINUX_ARM_ARCH__ logic from the Linux Kernel in a more complete
form. Move this from arch/arm/lib/Makefile to arch/arm/Makefile and add
a comment about it. Now that we can always know what the target CPU is
capable off we can get always do the correct thing for the barrier. The
final part of this is that need to be consistent everywhere and call
isb()/dsb()/dmb() and NOT call ISB/DSB/DMB in some cases and the
function names in others.

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.

The SPL code already knows which boot device it calls the spl_boot_mode()
on, so pass that information into the function. This allows the code of
spl_boot_mode() avoid invoking spl_boot_device() again, but it also lets
board_boot_order() correctly alter the behavior of the boot process.
The later one is important, since in certain cases, it is desired that
spl_boot_device() return value be overriden using board_boot_order().

This addresses a cosmetic issue when booting a sunxi device

"Trying to boot from FEL".

Commit bfb33f0bc4 ("sunxi: mctl_mem_matches: Add missing memory
barrier") broke compilation for the Pine64, as dram_helper.c now
includes <asm/armv7.h>, which does not compile on arm64.
Fix this by moving all barrier instructions into a separate header
file, which can easily be shared between arm and arm64.
Also extend the inline assembly to take the "sy" argument, which is
optional for ARMv7, but mandatory for v8.
This fixes compilation for 64-bit sunxi boards (Pine64).

We are running with the caches disabled when mctl_mem_matches gets called,
but the cpu's write buffer is still there and can still get in the way,
add a memory barrier to fix this.
This avoids mctl_mem_matches always returning false in some cases, which
was resulting in:
U-Boot SPL 2015.07 (Apr 14 2016 - 18:47:26)
DRAM: 1024 MiB
U-Boot 2015.07 (Apr 14 2016 - 18:47:26 +0200) Allwinner Technology
CPU: Allwinner A23 (SUN8I)
DRAM: 512 MiB
Where 512 MiB is the right amount, but the DRAM controller would be
initialized for 1024 MiB.

Unfortunately SPL is not ready yet due to legal problems, so

Some parts of the sunxi code cast explicitly between u32 values and pointers.
This is not a problem in practice, because all 64bit SoCs today only use the
lower 32 bits for their phyical address space. But we need to make sure that
the compiler is sure this is not an accident as well.

Some of the code in arch/arm/cpu/armv7/sunxi is actually armv7 specific, while
most of it is just generic code that could as well be used on an AArch64 SoC.

directory.
