[PATCH v8 0/8] Handoff bloblist from previous boot stage

This patch set adds/adapts a few bloblist APIs and implements Arm arch custom function to retrieve the bloblist (aka. Transfer List) from previous loader via boot arguments when BLOBLIST option is enabled and all boot arguments are compliant to the register conventions defined in the Firmware Handoff spec v0.9.
If an arch wishes to have different behaviors for loading bloblist from the previous boot stage, it is required to implement the custom function xferlist_from_boot_arg().
V5: Drop [PATCH v4 8/9] fdt: update the document and Kconfig description. V6: Drop [PATCH v5 8/8] fdt: get FDT from bloblist. V7: Fixed CI pipeline failures. V8: Refine asm code.
Raymond Mao (8): bloblist: add API to check the register conventions bloblist: check bloblist with specified buffer size bloblist: refactor of bloblist_reloc() arm: armv7: save boot arguments arm: armv8: save boot arguments arm: Get bloblist from boot arguments bloblist: Load the bloblist from the previous loader dts: OF_HAS_PRIOR_STAGE should depend on !BLOBLIST

Add bloblist_check_reg_conv() to check whether the bloblist is compliant to the register conventions defined in Firmware Handoff specification. This API can be used for all Arm platforms.

Instead of expecting the bloblist total size to be the same as the pre-allocated buffer size, practically we are more interested in whether the pre-allocated buffer size is bigger than the bloblist total size.

The current bloblist pointer and size can be retrieved from global data, so we don't need to pass them from the function arguments. This change also help to remove all external access of gd->bloblist outside of bloblist module.

When BLOBLIST is enabled, FDT is expected to be from bloblist carried from previous stage, instead of from OF_BOARD, therefore only enable OF_HAS_PRIOR_STAGE when BLOBLIST is disabled.

This patch set adds/adapts a few bloblist APIs and implements Arm arch custom function to retrieve the bloblist (aka. Transfer List) from previous loader via boot arguments when BLOBLIST option is enabled and all boot arguments are compliant to the register conventions defined in the Firmware Handoff spec v0.9.
If an arch wishes to have different behaviors for loading bloblist from the previous boot stage, it is required to implement the custom function xferlist_from_boot_arg().

Applied to u-boot/next, thanks!
