Make sure the ARM ACTLR register has correct configuration, otherwise the Linux kernel refuses to boot. In particular, the "Write Full Line of Zeroes" bit must be cleared.

NOTE: This gem was well hidden in the Altera U-Boot fork and is really needed. What is not entirely clear to me is WHY ? So why is this needed ?
I vaguely recall it's related to HW constrain. And check back the downstream U-Boot, actually we need to set the bit instead clearing it. https://github.com/altera-opensource/u-boot-socfpga/blob/socfpga_v2 014.10_arria10_bringup/arch/arm/cpu/armv7/socfpga_arria10/pl310.c
You are clearing it here: https://github.com/altera-opensource/u-boot-socfpga/blob/socfpga_v2014.10_ar...
The PL310 configuration is a different register. What HW constraint ? I'd really like to understand this problem.
Bump ? I had a report the register even has to be set to 0 , otherwise there are ethernet problems. What is going on with this register ?
Bump again ?
Expanding the CC list. I am tempted to stop accepting any socfpga patches until this is resolved.
