This patch set updates the latest device trees for Allwinner A64 based
boards from Linux. In contrast to v1 I now took the actual 4.13-rc1 DTs
from Linux, which restructures the patch set a bit.
The big advantage of having the very same DTs in U-Boot
is that we can use UEFI boot much more easily, because U-Boot can just
pass on its own DT, without having to find and load some external version.
This makes UEFI based installers boot out of the box, which is a big relief.
Linux 4.13-rc1 saw the addition of the sun8i-emac Ethernet driver, for
which U-Boot has a driver for quite a while, but with a slightly different
binding, so this series makes it compatible.
Patch 1/6 adds some missing compatible strings, it was on the list before,
but I add it to this series because it is a prerequisite for the following
patches. Patches 2 till 4 add some code to be able to parse the new pinctrl
bindings that newer Allwinner DTs use.
Patch 5 extends U-Boot sun8i-emac driver to be able to properly parse the
DT binding used by the new Linux driver as well.
Patch 6 then actually replaces the DTs for A64 boards with the exact version
as of the Linux tree (v4.13-rc1).
This allows us to *almost* get rid of out *-u-boot.dtsi kludge, but we
still need the alias, which the Linux version doesn't have, so this file
still contains this one line, effectively.
I am still not convinced that having a full featured pinctrl driver in
U-Boot is the right thing, so I cheekily ignore this part of the comments.
If people consider this a requirement, we can have a look at this, but
I don't see any reply since the first patch was posted some months ago,
so I guess this takes much more time.
Also my apologies for not having looked at the syscon driver change Simon
asked. It looks like a reasonable change, but I am about to leave for
holidays and didn't want to postpone an updated version any longer.
Cheers,
Andre.
