[PATCH v3 0/2] arm: stm32mp1: activate data cache in SPL and before relocation

[Patrick Delaunay]

V3 after first feedbacks of the previous serie
"arm: stm32mp1: activate data cache in SPL and before relocation"
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/?series=168390

This serie depends on the ARM cache serie:
"arm: caches: allow to activate dcache in SPL and in U-Boot pre-reloc"
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/?series=172555

I move tlb in .data section and simplify the implementation by reusing
the default weak function dram_bank_mmu_setup() for MMU configuration
and mmu_set_region_dcache_behaviour() to setup the specific behavior.

I also activate data cache on DDR for SPL.

For information the gain of the second patch is limited (few ms) for boot
from SDCARD: the SDMMC IP use internal DMA and data cache on DDR is
not really used.

Gain should be better for other boot use-case.

Example of bootstage report on STM32MP157C-DK2, boot from SD card.

1/ For trusted boot chain with TF-A

a) Before

Changes in v3:
- add Information in commit-message on early malloc and .BSS
- remove debug message "bye"

Changes in v2:
- create a new function early_enable_caches
- use TLB in .init section
- use the default weak dram_bank_mmu_setup() and
  use mmu_set_region_dcache_behaviour() to setup
  the early MMU configuration
- enable data cache on DDR in SPL, after DDR controller initialization
- new
