[PATCH 00/15] i.MX8MQ: Convert to DM_PMIC for a few boards

[Peng Fan (OSS)]

Per the thread [1] that Tom asks.

Convert to DM_PMIC for i.MX8MQ boards. Only tested on i.MX8MQ-EVK.

I not have other boards to test, so just my best practice to do the
migration.

While doing the migration, several cleanups are done by dropping
redundant gd clearing in board_init_f

For i.MX8MQ binman, because with SPL DM enabled, the image size is
large, TCM is not that big. After checking, found that hdmi firmware was
placed at wrong place, so fix the i.mx8mq binman support with patch:
"imx8mq: Correct signed_hdmi firmware position."

THe remaining patch is mainly for migration to DM PMIC, for
pico/reform2/phanbell, no pmic was used, so just drop SPL_POWER_LEGACY.

For imx8mq-evk and kontron board, enable SPL_DM for the migration.

More information could be found in patch commit log:
