The bcm2835 and bcm2836 are essentially identical, except:
- The CPU is an ARM1176 v.s. a quad-core Cortex-A7.
- The physical address of many IO controllers has moved.
Rather than introducing a whole new bcm2836 value for $(SOC) or $(ARCH),
update the existing bcm2835 code to handle the minor differences, and
plumb it into the ARMv7 CPU architecture.

This commit adds $(srctree)/arch/arm/$(machdirs)/include/mach to
the headers search path.
It allows us to replace "#include <asm/arch/foo.h>" with
"#include <mach/foo.h>". As "#include <asm/arch/foo.h>" is still
supported, we can modify each file one by one.

In U-Boot, SoC-specific headers are placed in
arch/$(ARCH)/include/asm/arch-$(SOC) and a symbolic link to that
directory is created at the early stage of the build process.
Creating and removing a symbolic link during the build is not
preferred. In fact, Linux Kernel did away with include/asm-$(ARCH)
directories a long time time ago.
As for ARM, now it is possible to collect SoC sources into
arch/arm/mach-$(SOC). It is also reasonable to move SoC headers
into arch/arm/mach-$(SOC)/include/mach.
This commit prepares for that.
If the directory arch/$(ARCH)/mach-$(SOC)/include/mach exists,
a symbolic to that directory is created. Otherwise, a symbolic link
to arch/$(ARCH)/include/asm/arch-$(SOC) or arch-$(CPU) is created.

In U-boot, the directory structure, arch/$(ARCH)/cpu/$(CPU)/$(SOC)/
has been adopted except that $(CPU) is missing from some
architectures and $(SOC) is missing from some CPUs.
This structure did not fit very well in some cases.
[1] AT91
AT91 SoC family have been developed across some ARM processor
generations. Generally speaking, some IPs are often re-used in the
same SoC family (same SoC vendor) even when the main processor is
updated. As a result, a SoC-common directory is needed in the upper
level. Currently, AT91 source files are placed as follows:
arch/arm/cpu/arm920t/at91/*
arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/at91/*
arch/arm/cpu/armv7/at91/*
arch/arm/cpu/at91-common/*
Once directories are split, the motivation for refactorings across
CPU directories is lost. Some files in arm920t/at91/ and
arm926ejs/at91/ are so similar that they could be merged.
[2] Tegra
Tegra is a little bit special case where different CPUs are used for
SPL and the main U-boot. To obey the arch/$(ARCH)/cpu/$(CPU)/$(SOC)
structure, the source files must be placed across the CPUs,
again SoC-common directory is necessary in the upper level.
Moreover, there are several families in Tegra: Tegra20, Tegra30,
Tegra114, Tegra124. Here again, the tegra-common directory is needed
to contain commonly-used files.
Tegra directories have been sprinkled in the directory structure.
arch/arm/cpu/arm720t/tegra20
arch/arm/cpu/arm720t/tegra30
arch/arm/cpu/arm720t/tegra114
arch/arm/cpu/arm720t/tegra124
arch/arm/cpu/arm720t/tegra-common
arch/arm/cpu/armv7/tegra20
arch/arm/cpu/armv7/tegra30
arch/arm/cpu/armv7/tegra114
arch/arm/cpu/armv7/tegra124
arch/arm/cpu/armv7/tegra-common
arch/arm/cpu/tegra20-common
arch/arm/cpu/tegra30-common
arch/arm/cpu/tegra114-common
arch/arm/cpu/tegra124-common
arch/arm/cpu/tegra-common
As you see, splitting SoC code by the CPU is not going well,
especially for ARM.
Why don't we collect SoC-specific files into a single place?
A good example we can follow is Linux's arch/arm/mach-* structure.
This item was discussed in the following thread:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/188548/
Looks like I got some positive responses and we are almost ready to
start this movement.
This commit prepares arch/arm/Makefile for describing machdirs in it.
After this commit, we can move SoC directory to arch/arm/mach-$(SOC)
in simple steps although some cases such as AT91 and Tegra need more
fixes.
What we generally have to do is:
[1] Move files arch/arm/cpu/$(CPU)/$(SOC)/* to arch/arm/mach-$(SOC)/*
[2] Add machine entry into arch/arm/Makefile
[3] Remove "obj-y += $(SOC)" from arch/arm/cpu/$(CPU)/Makefile
[4] Fix the Kconfig file path in arch/arm/Kconfig
[5] Modify MAINTAINERS if necessary

The board select menu in arch/arm/Kconfig is still big.
To slim down it, this commit moves AT91 boards to
arch/arm/mach-at91/Kconfig.
Also, consolidate "config SYS_SOC" in each board Kconfig.
The Kconfig files under board/ directory were modified with the
following command:
find board -name Kconfig | xargs sed -i -e '
/config SYS_SOC/ {
N
/default "at91"/ {
N
d
}
}

This came up in a discussion on the mailing list here:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/384613/
My concerns at the time were:
- it doesn't need to be written in assembler
- it doesn't need to be ARM-specific
This patch provides a possible alternative. It works by allowing any serial
driver to export one init function and provide a putc() function. These
can be used to output debug data before the real serial driver is available.
This implementation does not depend on driver model, and it is possible for
it to operate without a stack on some architectures (e.g. PowerPC, ARM). It
provides the same features as the ARM-specific debug.S but with more UART
and architecture support.

I2C chips do exist that require a write of some multi-byte data to occur in
a single bus transaction (aka atomic transfer), otherwise either the write
does not come into effect at all, or normal operation of internal circuitry
cannot be guaranteed. The current implementation of the 'i2c write' command
(transfer of multiple bytes from a memory buffer) in fact performs a separate
transaction for each byte to be written and thus cannot support such types of
I2C slave devices.
This patch provides an alternative by allowing 'i2c write' to execute the
write transfer of the given number of bytes in a single bus transaction if
the '-s' option is specified as a final command argument. Else the current
re-addressing method is used.

If you want to inspect the control device tree using the fdt command,
the "fdt address -c" command previously unhelpfully printed the phys
memory address of the device tree. That address could not then be used
to set the fdt address for inspection. Changed the resulting print to
one that can be copied directly to the 'fdt address <addr>' command.
