MIPS: generic: Convert SEAD-3 to a generic board

2016-10-06T16:04:20Z

Convert the MIPS SEAD-3 board support to be a generic board, supported by generic kernels. Because the SEAD-3 boot protocol was defined long ago and we don't want to force a switch to the UHI protocol, SEAD-3 is added as a legacy board which is detected by reading the REVISION register. This may technically not be a valid memory read & future work will include attempting to handle that gracefully. In practice since SEAD-3 is the only legacy board supported by the generic kernel so far the read will only happen on SEAD-3 boards, and even once Malta is converted the same REVISION register exists there too. Other boards such as Boston, Ci20 & Ci40 will use the UHI boot protocol & thus not run any of the legacy board detect functions.

MIPS: SEAD3: Use img-ascii-lcd driver

2016-10-06T15:04:34Z

Probe the img-ascii-lcd driver using device tree in order to display a message on the SEAD3 board's LCD display, and remove the platform code that was formerly performing this function. This removes more platform code and moves SEAD3 further towards being entirely DT-based.

MIPS: SEAD3: Drop use of cobalt fbdev driver

2016-10-06T14:42:07Z

The 2 line * 16 character LCD display on the SEAD3 board has no real use as a framebuffer device. It's far too small to produce any meaningful output if used as the kernel console, SEAD3 is a development board that will essentially always have a far more useful UART connection & the code in sead3-display.c will overwrite whatever's on the display every second anyway. Remove this unused code.

MIPS: SEAD3: Use generic restart-poweroff driver

2016-10-04T23:31:20Z

Remove the custom platform code to restart when instructed to power off, instead relying upon the generic restart-poweroff driver probed via DT to do the same thing. Remove also the halt implementation, which is incorrect. The generic MIPS version will hang the system as halt should.

MIPS: SEAD3: Use register-bit-led driver via DT for LEDs

2016-10-04T23:31:20Z

Probe a driver for the PLED & FLED LEDs found on the SEAD3 board using the register-bit-led driver via device tree, rather than a custom driver via platform code. Enable support for the register-bit-led driver & its prerequisite syscon in sead3_defconfig.

MIPS: SEAD3: Use generic ns16550a earlycon support

2016-10-04T23:31:20Z

Stop selecting SYS_HAS_EARLY_PRINTK & remove the custom support for early output to the ns16550a UARTs, instead relying upon generic ns16550a earlycon support. This reduces the amount of platform code required for SEAD3 without losing any functionality.

MIPS: SEAD3: Probe interrupt controllers using DT

2016-10-04T23:31:20Z

Probe the CPU interrupt controller & optional Global Interrupt Controller (GIC) using devicetree rather than platform code. Because the bootloader on SEAD3 does not provide a device tree to the kernel & the device tree is always built in, we patch out the GIC node during boot if we detect that a GIC is not present in the system. The appropriate IRQ domain is discovered by platform code setting up device IRQ numbers temporarily. It will be removed by further patches which move the devices towards being probed via device tree. No behavioural change is intended by this patch.

MIPS: SEAD3: Split obj-y entries across lines

Split the obj-y entries for SEAD3 onto a line each, so that they're more independent & can be modified more clearly by later commits.

of: clean-up unnecessary libfdt include paths

2015-06-05T01:16:47Z

With the libfdt include fixups to use "" instead of <> in the latest dtc import in commit 4760597 (scripts/dtc: Update to upstream version 9d3649bd3be245c9), it is no longer necessary to add explicit include paths to use libfdt. Remove these across the kernel.
