T210's GPU secure firmware loading requires a write-protected region to be set up.
This patch reserves the upper 256KB of RAM as the WPR region and locks it so the kernel can initiate secure firmware loading.
On T210, it's the responsibility of nvtboot (which runs before U-Boot) to set up any and all carve-outs. This code should not be necessary, and indeed I expect the registers it touches can't actually be programmed from U-Boot, which runs in non-secure mode after WPR is already locked.
Ok, I was running from Thierry's miniloader which did not program or lock these registers.
The question then is: do we have an official nvtboot binary available for upstream support? AFAICT Thierry's miniloader solution is the only solution available to the public, and without this setup one cannot use the GPU on T210.
