[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 0/4] arm: mvebu: Allow DB-88F6820-GP to boot Linux

Changes needed to allow the DB-88F6820-GP development board to successfully boot a Linux kernel.
Changes in v3: - Correct coding-style errors - Correct config macro style error - Add acked-by lines
Kevin Smith (3): arm: mvebu: Update CBAR with SOC regs base mv-common.h: Include support for device trees db-88f6820-gp.h: Load data blobs into lower memory
Stefan Roese (1): arm: mvebu: Disable L2 cache before enabling d-cache

From: Stefan Roese sr@denx.de
L2 cache may still be enabled by the BootROM. We need to first disable it before enabling d-cache support.

SMP-enabled Linux kernels read the CBAR register in CP15 to find the address of the SCU registers. After remapping internal registers, also update the CBAR so the kernel can find them.

I just noticed that you didn't add this patch (and "[PATCH v3 4/4] db-88f6820-gp.h: Load data blobs into lower memory") in your last pull request. Could you please queue those 2 patches for your next pull request?
Thanks, Stefan

I just sent a pull request for those. I must have missed them for some reason. Thank you for the pointer.
When this gets merged we can start dropping CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT from Marvell boards which include mv-common.h.

By default on this platform, u-boot loads data into high memory in the range of 0x7Fxxxxxx, which generates a data abort when the kernel tries to read it. Config the u-boot environment to load the device tree and initrd image into lower memory to make them accessible to the kernel.
