LS2081ARDB board Overview
-------------------------
LS2081ARDB board is similar to LS2080ARDB board
with few differences like
- Hosts LS2081A SoC
- Default boot source is QSPI-boot
- Does not have IFC interface
- RTC and QSPI flash devices are different
- Provides QIXIS access via I2C
Memory map from core's view

0x80_8000_0000 .. 0xFF_FFFF_FFFF DDR region #2
Other addresses are either reserved, or not used directly by U-Boot.
This list should be updated when more addresses are used.
IFC region map from core's view
-------------------------------
During boot i.e. IFC Region #1:-
0x30000000 - 0x37ffffff : 128MB : NOR flash
0x3C000000 - 0x40000000 : 64MB : CPLD
After relocate to DDR i.e. IFC Region #2:-
0x5_1000_0000..0x5_1fff_ffff Memory Hole
0x5_2000_0000..0x5_3fff_ffff IFC CSx (CPLD, NAND and others 512MB)
0x5_4000_0000..0x5_7fff_ffff ASIC or others 1GB
0x5_8000_0000..0x5_bfff_ffff IFC CS0 1GB (NOR/Promjet)
0x5_C000_0000..0x5_ffff_ffff IFC CS1 1GB (NOR/Promjet)
Booting Options

Refer to board documentation for correct switch setting.
QSPI boot details
===================
Supported only for
LS2088ARDB RevF board with LS2088A SoC.
Images needs to be copied to QSPI flash
as per memory map given below.

Booting Linux flavors which do not support 48-bit VA (< Linux 3.18)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
One needs to use appropriate bootargs to boot Linux flavors which do
not support 48-bit VA (for e.g. < Linux 3.18) by appending mem=2048M, as shown
below:
=> setenv bootargs 'console=ttyS1,115200 root=/dev/ram
earlycon=uart8250,mmio,0x21c0600,115200 default_hugepagesz=2m hugepagesz=2m
hugepages=16 mem=2048M'
