This level documentation is good rather than nothing :-)

The code here looks very long
It's purpose is to initialize certain CPU registers.
For specific board there is no need of any conditional initializations.

Similar to board/Marvell/Sheevaplug/kwbimage.cfg, can you abstract a data for CPU registers and values to be initialized through some data structures and a small function to read and copy them to respective registers?

That will give better readability and easy updates for future users.

edminv2.c is also board specific :-), lets keep least ASM code.
We cannot avoid lowlevel_init otherwise I could have preferred to omit it.

For ex. Mpp_init, GPIO_init and other init can go in cpu.c,
You can declare respective init macros in edminv2.h and function calls in edminv2.c
Thus those will be re-usable for other orion5X boards.

Also you can do basic CPU registers initialization as suggested above and
Further tuning like reading "sample on reset" and updating some specific registers can be pushed in cpu.c
Because this will be a standard need to all board using this SoC

What do you think?
