Subject: [PATCH 0/4] ARM64: Initial Marvell IAP140 enablement

Hello,

This mini-series adds initial support for the Marvell IAP140 SoC (aka PXA1908)
and the Andromeda Box Edge development board.

In order to enable the 8250 UART driver, it reuses ARCH_PXA; but some drivers
enabled with ARCH_PXA don't build due to arm assembly or arm64's lack of mach-,
so their dependencies need to be limited to ARM alongside (blacklisted). The
alternative would of course be to choose a new ARCH_ symbol and to selectively
add it to drivers known working (whitelisting). The latter would require
finding a suitable name.

Both earlycon and serial are working, but an explicit console=ttyS0,115200n8
is needed; with just "earlycon" and stdout-path the earlycon stops early and
switches to a tty0, long before disabling the bootconsole...

All four CPUs come up, and an initrd can be reached.

However, there are errors about CPUs 1-3 having a zero SYS_CNTFRQ_EL0:

More Marvell drivers may be available in-tree for reuse - besides build errors
the limitation is currently the lack of an IAP140 clk driver though. Patch 4/4
works around that for UART0 with a fixed-clock.

A 3.14 based tree is available on GitHub acorn-marvell/brillo_pxa_kernel. No
driver comparisons to mainline have been attempted yet.

Booting required changes to the vendor U-Boot,
cf. https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:AndromedaBoxEdge

Have a lot of fun!

Cheers,
Andreas
