This patch adds support for SAMSUNG's/NEXELL's ARM Cortex-A9 based S5P4418 SoC, especially FriendlyARM's NanoPi2 and NanoPC-T2 boards. It is based on the following FriendlyARM's U-Boot version: https://github.com/friendlyarm/u-boot/tree/nanopi2-v2016.01.
I don't think this is the right approach, i.e. to take everything from BSP source as it is and put it into mainline U-BOOT. AFAIR, Some of the peripherals present on these NEXELL SoC's are compatible with SAMSUNG IP (for instance the UART). So, are we sure that some of the already existing code in U-BOOT can't be re-used to drive those compatible peripherals at-least ?
Thanks -Amit
