[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 0/8] x86: qemu: add fw_cfg interface support for qemu-x86 targets

[Miao Yan]

The fw_cfg interface provided by QEMU allow guests to retrieve various information
about the system, e.g. cpu number, variaous firmware data, kernel setup, etc. The
fw_cfg interface can be accessed through 3 IO ports (on x86), using x86 in/out
instructions.

  - 0x510: select configuration items to access
  - 0x511: reading this port will return data selected in 0x510 
  - 0x514: this can be used to detect if DMA interface is available

If fw_cfg DMA interface is available, it can be used to accelerate
accesses.

This patchset adds the following supports for qemu-x86 targets: 

  + the fw_cfg driver itself

  + add a U-Boot command 'fw' to support direct accessing kernel informtion
    from fw_cfg interface, this saves the time of loading them from hard disk or
    network again, through emulated devices.

  + use fw_cfg to get cpu number at runtime, so smp boot no longer relies on
    the cpu node hard-coded in dts files.

Changes in v2:
  - rebase to u-boot-x86/next
  - various cleanups

Changes in v3:
  - fix an error in do_qemu_fw()

  x86: qemu: add fw_cfg support
  x86: qemu: add a cpu uclass driver for qemu target
  x86: fix a typo in function name
  x86: use actual CPU number for allocating memory
