[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 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 v2: - Correct address written to CBAR to be the SCU address instead of the internal registers address
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.

Thanks Kevin. Only some coding style related comments below:

No space before the "(" please. checkpatch should complain about these minor issues btw. So its always recommended to run it before sending the patches to the list.
Please send an updated version and add my

To enable this option, no value is needed. So
#define CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT /* Device tree support */
should do as well and is preferred.

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.
