Kumar Gala 79e4e6480b powerpc/8xxx: Enabled hwconfig for memory interleaving
Replace environmental variables memctl_intlv_ctl and ba_intlv_ctl with
hwconfig parameters. The syntax is

    setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=<mode>,bank_intlv=<mode>"

The mode values for memory controller interleaving are
    cacheline
    page
    bank
    superbank

The mode values for bank interleaving are
    cs0_cs1
    cs2_cs3
    cs0_cs1_and_cs2_cs3
    cs0_cs1_cs2_cs3

(*) Although the hardware can be configured with memory controller
interleaving using "2x2" rank interleaving, it only interleaves {CS0+CS1}
from each controller. {CS2+CS3} on each controller are only rank
interleaved on that controller.
The ways to configure the ddr interleaving mode
==============================================
1. In board header file(e.g.MPC8572DS.h), add default interleaving setting
under "CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS", like:
#define CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS \
"hwconfig=fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=bank" \
......
2. Run u-boot "setenv" command to configure the memory interleaving mode.
Either numerical or string value is accepted.
# disable memory controller interleaving
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=null"
# cacheline interleaving
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=cacheline"
# page interleaving
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=page"
# bank interleaving
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=bank"
# superbank
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=superbank"
# disable bank (chip-select) interleaving
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=null"
# bank(chip-select) interleaving cs0+cs1
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=cs0_cs1"
# bank(chip-select) interleaving cs2+cs3
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=cs2_cs3"
# bank(chip-select) interleaving (cs0+cs1) and (cs2+cs3) (2x2)
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=cs0_cs1_and_cs2_cs3"
# bank(chip-select) interleaving (cs0+cs1+cs2+cs3) (4x1)
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:bank_intlv=cs0_cs1_cs2_cs3"
The above memory controller interleaving and bank interleaving can be mixed. The syntax is
setenv hwconfig "fsl_ddr:ctlr_intlv=cacheline,bank_intlv=cs0_cs1"
