[U-Boot] u-boot on Intrinsyc dragonboard 810.

[Mateusz Kulikowski]

Hi All,

Sorry I didn't posted here earlier, but It seems it's time to explain:

1) My "original" u-boot work is dirty and not good enough for mainline 
(it works properly, but has a lot of garbage, doesn't use Device Model and so on)
This are branches dragonboard, dragonboard-dev etc.

2) I'm in the middle of reworking it into "clean" code.
You can see it on dragonboard-for-mainline-rebase-29.11 branch.

As this code adds a new SoC and several drivers, I decided to ask collegue to do 
pre-review and planned to send RFC somewhere this week so there will be less 
re-submits.

@Syed: I asked you to wait few days, as I'm rebasing/squashing my for-mainline branch, 
and doing heavy reworks of core code, so your commits adding one new board would be lost.

I hope to change that soon :)

I took code from Linux/Little Kernel, as it was quickest way to get it running
A lot of it is also already removed - for example spmi looks like that right now:
https://github.com/hallor/u-boot/blob/af156ba28b03ea51bc2850cdf3c39aad06553998/arch/arm/mach-snapdragon/spmi.c

As for license rewriting - oops, I have to recheck that.
I was sure LK was GPL as well, and mechanically added GPL-2.0+ to all files - shame on me.

Best Regards,
Mateusz
