so many thanks again for putting this together!
I came to like (the idea of) this series very much lately, as this
removes timing/delay values from the code, and easily allows putting the
vendor provided values in the defconfig.
I used that approach as well for the D1 driver, and am wondering if we
should extend this to other SoCs, potentially unifying the Kconfig part?

And you hinted at a v2, can you provide an estimate for this? If you
send it still this week, I would like to put it into U-Boot's next
branch, otherwise it goes straight into master, should the merge window
open next week as planned.

Btw., to verify the feasibility of drivers/ram/sunxi, I moved the H616
driver into there, together with the Kconfig parts, I wonder what you
think about this? An example of how this looks is in the D1 driver
patches.

Cheers,
Andre
