[U-Boot] [PATCH] [RFC] imx: dek_blob: Fix lock-up on dek_blob command

[Stefano Babic]

Hi Henri,

I have not forgotten your patc, just postponed after the release.

Agree with analyses - if clock is not enabled, it hangs.

I am just thinking about what you are meaning with underlying layer. The
thing is that this cmd_dek is quite unrelated to a underlying crypto
driver, that for CAAM does not exists in U-Boot.

One point is that all HAB related functions are in
arch/arm/mach-imx/hab.c - having a hab.c and cmd_dek.c can be confusing.
One way could be to add accessors to access CAAM (read / write), and
this should take care if clock is enabled, letting it transparent to the
CAAM "user".

Let me know if you would like to rework this - else I beg you to rebase
it on current tree (imx-coomon is now mach-imx), and add comments inside
the code about the reason clock must be enabled.

Best regards,
Stefano Babic
