Jerome Brunet 8bbfb40e57 board: amlogic: remove p212 derivatives
The Khadas vim and the libretech aml-s905x-cc (aka Potato) derive
from amlogic s905x reference design (P212).

All the code in these board is a copy/paste from the p212, which is
tedious to maintain. This change use p212 u-boot board for all these
boards, while keeping a dedicated defconfig to customize the names
and device tree.

U-Boot for Amlogic P212
=======================
P212 is a reference board manufactured by Amlogic with the following
specifications:
- Amlogic S905X ARM Cortex-A53 quad-core SoC @ 1.5GHz
- ARM Mali 450 GPU
- 2GB DDR3 SDRAM
- 10/100 Ethernet
- HDMI 2.0 4K/60Hz display
- 2 x USB 2.0 Host
- eMMC, microSD
- Infrared receiver
- SDIO WiFi Module
- CVBS+Stereo Audio Jack
Schematics are available from Amlogic on demand.
Currently the u-boot port supports the following devices:
- serial
- eMMC, microSD
- Ethernet
- I2C
- Regulators
- Reset controller
- Clock controller
- USB Host
- ADC
u-boot compilation
==================
> export ARCH=arm
> export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-none-elf-
> make p212_defconfig
> make
Image creation
==============
Amlogic doesn't provide sources for the firmware and for tools needed
to create the bootloader image, so it is necessary to obtain them from
the git tree published by the board vendor:
> wget https://releases.linaro.org/archive/13.11/components/toolchain/binaries/gcc-linaro-aarch64-none-elf-4.8-2013.11_linux.tar.xz

> make
> export FIPDIR=$PWD/fip
Go back to mainline U-boot source tree then :
> mkdir fip
> cp $FIPDIR/gxl/bl2.bin fip/
> cp $FIPDIR/gxl/acs.bin fip/
> cp $FIPDIR/gxl/bl21.bin fip/
> cp $FIPDIR/gxl/bl30.bin fip/

> cp u-boot.bin fip/bl33.bin
> $FIPDIR/blx_fix.sh \
fip/bl30.bin \

--bl30 fip/bl30_new.bin.enc \

--bl33 fip/bl33.bin.enc
and then write the image to SD with:
> DEV=/dev/your_sd_device
> dd if=fip/u-boot.bin.sd.bin of=$DEV conv=fsync,notrunc bs=512 skip=1 seek=1
> dd if=fip/u-boot.bin.sd.bin of=$DEV conv=fsync,notrunc bs=1 count=444
