Devices for nodes with e.g. bootph-pre-ram are initialized three times.
- At SPL stage (always bind and probe only if used)
- At U-Boot proper pre-reloc (always bind and probe)

Change ofnode_pre_reloc to report a node with bootph-pre-ram/sram prop with a pre-reloc status only after U-Boot proper pre-relocation stage. This prevents the device from being probed at U-Boot proper pre-reloc.

I am not sure if U-Boot proper pre-reloc behaves like this by design and if there is some other way to signal that a device should not be probed during U-Boot proper pre-reloc stage if it has been probed at SPL stage.
For my use-case I added bootph-pre-ram prop to my RK8xx device node to make the PMIC usable in SPL. However, I have no need for this device to probe at U-Boot proper pre-reloc stage just after jumping out of TF-A. And moments later bind and probe yet again at U-Boot proper normal stage.
The bootph-pre-ram prop was used to have the device usable in SPL, else I could have used bootph-all or added bootph-some-ram prop to indicate use at U-Boot proper pre-reloc stage.
This is changing how things work...we really need to have something explicit to use this new behaviour. Perhaps we can augment the binding in some way?

I believe that the compiler knows how to convert 'gd->flags & GD_FLG_RELOC' into a bool, so !! is not needed.
