3517de6d26 dfu: ram: fix number base of RAM entity parameters
U-Boot typically interprets unprefixed numbers as base 16, and DFU RAM
entity parsing has historically done so. Reverse the change to default
to base 10, so that values in previously working command-lines aren't
mis-parsed, causing RAM corruption, crashes, hangs, etc.

e1b0f6fe3d drivers: dfu: ram: fix a crash with dfu ram with invalid dfu_alt_info env
U-Boot crashes when an invalid dfu_alt_info is set and tried
using dfu command. Fixing this as it is handled in dfu-mmc.

=> dfu 0 ram 0

dd64827eb6 dfu: defer parsing of device string to IO backend
Devices are not all identified by a single integer. To support
this, defer the parsing of the device string to the IO backed, so that
it can apply the appropriate rules.

SPI devices are specified as controller:chip_select. SPI/SF support will
be added soon.

MMC devices can also be specified as controller[.hwpart][:partition] in
many commands, although we don't support that syntax in DFU.

0e285b503c dfu: fix some issues with reads/uploads
DFU read support appears to rely upon dfu->read_medium() updating the
passed-by-reference len parameter to indicate the remaining size
available for reading.

dfu_read_medium_mmc() never does this, and the implementation of
dfu_read_medium_nand() will only work if called just once; it hard-codes
the value to the total size of the NAND device irrespective of read
offset.

I believe that overloading dfu->read_medium() is confusing. As such,
this patch introduces a new function dfu->get_medium_size() which can
be used to explicitly find out the medium size, and nothing else.
dfu_read() is modified to use this function to set the initial value for
dfu->r_left, rather than attempting to use the side-effects of
dfu->read_medium() for this purpose.

Due to this change, dfu_read() must initially set dfu->b_left to 0, since
no data has been read.

dfu_read_buffer_fill() must also be modified not to adjust dfu->r_left
when simply copying data from dfu->i_buf_start to the upload request
buffer. r_left represents the amount of data left to be read from HW.
That value is not affected by the memcpy(), but only by calls to
dfu->read_medium().

After this change, I can read from either a 4MB or 1.5MB chunk of a 4MB
eMMC boot partion with CONFIG_SYS_DFU_DATA_BUF_SIZE==1MB. Without this
change, attempting to do that would result in DFU read returning no data
at all due to r_left never being set.

a9479f0431 dfu: ram support
DFU spec mentions it as a method to upgrade firmware (software stored
in writable non-volatile memory). It also says other potential uses of
DFU is beyond scope of the spec.

Here such a beyond the scope use is being attempted - directly pumping
binary images from host via USB to RAM. This facility is a developer
centric one in that it gives advantage over upgrading non-volatile
memory for testing new images every time during development and/or
testing.

Directly putting image onto RAM would speed up upgrade process. This and
convenience was the initial thoughts that led to doing this, speed
improvement over MMC was only 1 second though - 6 sec on RAM as opposed
to 7 sec on MMC in beagle bone, perhaps enabling cache and/or optimizing
DFU framework to avoid multiple copy for ram (if worth) may help, and
on other platforms and other boot media like NAND maybe improvement
would be higher.

And for a platform that doesn't yet have proper DFU suppport for
non-volatile media's, DFU to RAM can be used.

Another minor advantage would be to increase life of mmc/nand as it
would be less used during development/testing.

usage: <image name> ram <start address> <size>
eg. kernel ram 0x81000000 0x1000000

Downloading images to RAM using DFU is not something new, this is
acheived in openmoko also.

DFU on RAM can be used for extracting RAM contents to host using dfu
upload. Perhaps this can be extended to io for squeezing out register
dump through usb, if it is worth.
