ceee07b658 mtd: nand: Sync with Linux v4.6
Updates the NAND code to match Linux v4.6.  The previous sync was from
Linux v4.1 in commit d3963721d9.

Note that none of the individual NAND drivers tracked Linux closely
enough to be synced themselves, other than manually applying a few
cross-tree changes.

81c772521f mtd: nand: Add page argument to write_page() etc.
This change is part of the Linux 4.6 sync.  It is being done before the
main sync patch in order to make it easier to address the issue across
all NAND drivers (many/most of which do not closely track their Linux
counterparts) separately from other merge issues.

b616d9b0a7 nand: Embed mtd_info in struct nand_chip
nand_info[] is now an array of pointers, with the actual mtd_info
instance embedded in struct nand_chip.

This is in preparation for syncing the NAND code with Linux 4.6,
which makes the same change to struct nand_chip.  It's in a separate
commit due to the large amount of changes required to accommodate the
change to nand_info[].

d31e9c575f arm: socfpga: improve raw MMC SPL boot
Before this patch, when booting from MMC (no filesystem), the SPL
loaded U-Boot from a fixed offset.
It will now load U-Boot from an offset of 256kB (which is 4 times the
padded SPL image) in the third partition.

This behaviour is similar to what the vendor SPL (based on
U-Boot 2013.01) does, and allows to directly 'dd' the
u-boot-with-spl.sfp file to the A2 partition.

6f41751f46 Revert "image.h: Tighten up content using handy CONFIG_IS_ENABLED() macro."
This reverts commit 56adbb3872.

Since commit 56adbb3872 ("image.h: Tighten up content using handy
CONFIG_IS_ENABLED() macro."), I found my boards fail to boot Linux
because the commit changed the logic of macros it touched.  Now,
IMAGE_ENABLE_RAMDISK_HIGH and IMAGE_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE are 0 for all
the boards.

As you can see in include/linux/kconfig.h, CONFIG_IS_ENABLE() (and
IS_ENABLED() as well) can only take a macro that is either defined
as 1 or undefined.  This is met for boolean options defined in
Kconfig.  On the other hand, CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_RAMDISK_HIGH and
CONFIG_SYS_BOOT_GET_CMDLINE are defined without any value in
arch/*/include/asm/config.h .  This kind of clean-up is welcome,
but the options should be moved to Kconfig beforehand.

Moreover, CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(SPL_CRC32_SUPPORT) looks weird.
It should be either CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(CRC32_SUPPORT) or
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SPL_CRC32_SUPPORT).  But, I see no define for
CONFIG_SPL_CRC32_SUPPORT anywhere.  Likewise for the other three.

The logic of IMAGE_OF_BOARD_SETUP and IMAGE_OF_SYSTEM_SETUP were
also changed for SPL.  This can be a problem for boards defining
CONFIG_SPL_OF_LIBFDT.  I guess it should have been changed to
IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP).

In the first place, if we replace the references in C code,
the macros IMAGE_* will go away.

  if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP) {
          ...
  }

97f3a178b2 board: AM335x-ICEv2: Add cpsw support
In order to enable cpsw on AM335x ICEv2 board, the following needs to be done:

1)There are few on board jumper settings which gives a choice between
cpsw and PRUSS, that needs to be properly selected[1]. Even after selecting
this, there are few GPIOs which control these muxes that needs to be held high.

2) The clock to PHY is provided by a PLL-based clock synthesizer[2] connected
via I2C. This needs to properly programmed and locked for PHY operation.
And PHY needs to be reset before before being used, which is also held by
a GPIO.

3) RMII mode needs to be selected.

9aac7d0ec9 ti: AM43xx: Use CONFIG options from SOC Kconfig
Updates configs/am43xx_evm.h to use CONFIG options from
SOC specific Kconfig file for various calculations.

On AM43x devices, the address of SPL entry point  depends on
the device type, i.e. whether it is secure or non-secure.

Further, for non-secure devices, the SPL entry point is different
between  USB HOST boot mode, other "memory" boot modes (MMC, NAND)
and "peripheral" boot modes (UART, USB)

To add to the complexity, on secure devices, in addition to the
above differences, the SPL entry point can change because of the
space occupied by other components (other than u-boot or spl)
that go into a secure boot image.

To prevent the user from having to modify source files every time
any component of the secure image changes, the value of
CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE has been set using a Kconfig option that
is supplied in the am43xx_*_defconfig files

Using the CONFIG options also enables us to do away with some
compile time flags that were used to specify CONFIG_SPL_TEXT_BASE
for different boot modes.

On QSPI devices, the same problem described above occurs w.r.t. the
address of the u-boot entry point in flash, when booting secure
devices. To handle this, CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE is also setup via
a Kconfig option and the defconfig files.

6238935d01 Add a mailbox driver framework/uclass
A mailbox is a hardware mechanism for transferring small message and/or
notifications between the CPU on which U-Boot runs and some other device
such as an auxilliary CPU running firmware or a hardware module.

This patch defines a standard API that connects mailbox clients to mailbox
providers (drivers). Initially, DT is the only supported method for
connecting the two.

The DT binding specification (mailbox.txt) was taken from Linux kernel
v4.5's Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mailbox/mailbox.txt.
