b75d8dc564 treewide: convert bd_t to struct bd_info by coccinelle
The Linux coding style guide (Documentation/process/coding-style.rst)
clearly says:

  It's a **mistake** to use typedef for structures and pointers.

Besides, using typedef for structures is annoying when you try to make
headers self-contained.

Let's say you have the following function declaration in a header:

  void foo(bd_t *bd);

This is not self-contained since bd_t is not defined.

To tell the compiler what 'bd_t' is, you need to include <asm/u-boot.h>

  #include <asm/u-boot.h>
  void foo(bd_t *bd);

Then, the include direcective pulls in more bloat needlessly.

If you use 'struct bd_info' instead, it is enough to put a forward
declaration as follows:

  struct bd_info;
  void foo(struct bd_info *bd);

Right, typedef'ing bd_t is a mistake.

I used coccinelle to generate this commit.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:

  <smpl>
  @@
  typedef bd_t;
  @@
  -bd_t
  +struct bd_info
  </smpl>

83d290c56f SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style
When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from.  So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry.  Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents.  There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

df50b3b414 net: pcnet: refactor mapping of virtual addresses to physical ones
pci_virt_to_mem() uses virt_to_phys() to get the physical address.
But pci_virt_to_mem() is also called with uncached addresses which
is wrong according to the documentation of virt_to_phys().

Refactor the PCI_TO_MEM() macro to optionally map an uncached address
back to a cached one before calling pci_virt_to_mem().

Currently pcnet works because virt_to_phys() is incorrectly implemented
on MIPS. With the upcoming asm header file update for MIPS, the
virt_to_phys() implementation will be fixed. Thus this patch is needed
to keep pcnet working on MIPS Malta board.

6fb49e4aa0 pcnet: force ordering of descriptor accesses
The ordering of accesses to the rx & tx descriptors is important, yet
the send & recv functions accessed them via regular structure accesses.
This leaves the compiler with the opportunity to reorder those accesses
or to hoist them outside of loops. Prevent that from happening by using
readl & writel to access the descriptors. As a nice bonus, this removes
the need for the driver to care about endianness.

f1ae382dfd pcnet: access descriptor rings & init block uncached
The prior accesses to the descriptor rings & init block via cached
memory had a few issues:

  - The memory needs cache flushes or invalidation at the appropriate
    times, but was not necessarily aligned on cache line boundaries.
    This could lead to data being incorrectly lost or written back to
    RAM at the wrong time.

  - There are points where ordering of writes to the memory is
    important, but because it's cached memory the pcnet controller
    would see cache lines written back ordered by address. This could
    occasionally lead to hardware seeing descriptors in an incorrect
    state.

  - Flushing the cache constantly is inefficient.

So, to avoid all of those issues simply access the descriptors & init
block via uncached memory. The MIPS-specific UNCACHED_SDRAM macro is
used to do this (retrieving an address in kseg1) as I could see no
existing generic solution. Since the MIPS Malta board is the only user
of the pcnet driver, hopefully this doesn't matter.

649acfe149 MPC824x: remove obsolete "PN62" board
The MPC824x processors have long reached EOL, and the PN62 board has
not seen any board-specific updates for more than a decade.  It is now
causing build issues.  Instead of wasting time on things nobody is
interested in any more, we rather drop this board.

62715a2c57 pcnet: enable the NOUFLO feature
On relatively slow boards (such as the MIPS Malta with an FPGA core
card) it can be extremely common for transmits to underflow - to the
point where it appears they simply do not work at all. Setting the
NOUFLO bit causes the ethernet controller to not begin transmission on
the wire until a transmit start point is reached. Setting that transmit
start point to the full packet will cause the controller to only
transmit the packet once it has buffered it entirely thus preventing any
transmit underflows from occuring and allowing the controller to
function on slower boards.

f3ac866c78 pcnet: add cache flushing & invalidation
Ensure that the view of memory from the CPU & the ethernet controller is
coherent at the various points where they exchange data. This prevents
stale data from being transmitted or received, and prevents the driver
from getting stuck waiting for the ethernet controller to update
descriptors when in reality it has but the old values are being read
from cache.
