CAAM was reading/writing on address 0 because pamu_init()\nis never called if secure boot isn't enabled.\n\nSince legacy ethernet was removed, board_eth_init() and\nfdt_fixup_board_enet() won't be called anymore, but the functions\nare still defined. I've just removed the ones for the NXP boards,\nthough I think the code there did something useful. But given that\nit wasn't called for two years now and nobody complained, it can't\nbe that important.\n\nLastly, because I have a p2041rdb, move that to a upstream DTS.\nKeep in mind, that the uboot dts doesn't define an UART, so any\noutput was broken since the move to DM provided serial support.\n\nMichael Walle (10):\n  powerpc: fix call to cpu_init_r\n  caam: don't write memory at 0 on PPC\n  spi: fsl_espi: fix read transactions\n  boards: remove dead fman code\n  boards/nxp: remove board_eth_init()\n  boards/nxp: remove empty fdt_fixup_board_enet()\n  p2041rdb: use the upstream device tree\n  p2041rdb: support SDcard boot\n  p2041rdb: update README and fix typos\n  p2041rdb: remove NAND defconfig\n\n arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/cpu_init.c           |   4 +-\n arch/powerpc/dts/p2041.dtsi                   | 138 ----\n arch/powerpc/dts/p2041rdb-u-boot.dtsi         |  19 +\n arch/powerpc/dts/p2041rdb.dts                 | 127 ---\n arch/powerpc/dts/p2041si-post.dtsi            |  43 --\n board/nxp/ls1012afrdm/eth.c                   |  10 -\n board/nxp/ls1012ardb/eth.c                    |  12 -\n board/nxp/ls1021atsn/ls1021atsn.c             |   5 -\n board/nxp/ls1021atwr/ls1021atwr.c             |   5 -\n board/nxp/ls1028a/ls1028a.c                   |   5 -\n board/nxp/ls1043aqds/Makefile                 |   3 -\n board/nxp/ls1043aqds/eth.c                    | 501 ------------\n board/nxp/ls1043aqds/ls1043aqds.c             |   4 -\n board/nxp/ls1043ardb/Makefile                 |   1 -\n board/nxp/ls1043ardb/eth.c                    |  77 --\n board/nxp/ls1046afrwy/eth.c                   |  57 --\n board/nxp/ls1046aqds/Makefile                 |   3 -\n board/nxp/ls1046aqds/eth.c                    | 431 -----------\n board/nxp/ls1046aqds/ls1046aqds.c             |   4 -\n board/nxp/ls1046ardb/eth.c                    |  71 --\n board/nxp/ls2080ardb/eth_ls2080rdb.c          |  19 -\n board/nxp/lx2160a/eth_lx2160aqds.c            |  18 -\n board/nxp/lx2160a/eth_lx2160ardb.c            |  17 -\n board/nxp/lx2160a/eth_lx2162aqds.c            |  18 -\n board/nxp/m5253demo/m5253demo.c               |   7 -\n board/nxp/mx6sxsabreauto/mx6sxsabreauto.c     |  52 --\n board/nxp/mx6sxsabresd/mx6sxsabresd.c         |  78 --\n board/nxp/p2041rdb/Makefile                   |   1 -\n board/nxp/p2041rdb/README                     |  34 +-\n board/nxp/p2041rdb/eth.c                      | 210 -----\n board/nxp/p2041rdb/p2041rdb_rcw_sd.cfg        |  11 +\n ...{rcw_p2041rdb.cfg => p2041rdb_rcw_spi.cfg} |   0\n board/nxp/t102xrdb/Makefile                   |   1 -\n board/nxp/t102xrdb/eth_t102xrdb.c             | 149 ----\n board/nxp/t102xrdb/t102xrdb.c                 |   1 -\n board/nxp/t102xrdb/t102xrdb.h                 |   1 -\n board/nxp/t104xrdb/Makefile                   |   1 -\n board/nxp/t104xrdb/eth.c                      |  91 ---\n board/nxp/t104xrdb/t104xrdb.h                 |   1 -\n board/nxp/t208xqds/Makefile                   |   2 +-\n board/nxp/t208xqds/eth_t208xqds.c             | 723 ------------------\n board/nxp/t208xrdb/eth_t208xrdb.c             |   5 -\n board/nxp/t208xrdb/t208xrdb.c                 |   1 -\n board/nxp/t208xrdb/t208xrdb.h                 |   1 -\n board/nxp/t4rdb/Makefile                      |   1 -\n board/nxp/t4rdb/eth.c                         | 152 ----\n board/nxp/t4rdb/t4240rdb.c                    |   1 -\n board/nxp/t4rdb/t4rdb.h                       |   1 -\n common/board_r.c                              |   2 +-\n configs/P2041RDB_NAND_defconfig               | 117 ---\n configs/P2041RDB_SDCARD_defconfig             |   3 +-\n configs/P2041RDB_SPIFLASH_defconfig           |   6 +-\n configs/P2041RDB_defconfig                    |   4 +-\n drivers/spi/fsl_espi.c                        |   6 +-\n include/configs/P2041RDB.h                    |   2 +\n 55 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 3196 deletions(-)\n delete mode 100644 arch/powerpc/dts/p2041.dtsi\n create mode 100644 arch/powerpc/dts/p2041rdb-u-boot.dtsi\n delete mode 100644 arch/powerpc/dts/p2041rdb.dts\n delete mode 100644 arch/powerpc/dts/p2041si-post.dtsi\n delete mode 100644 board/nxp/ls1043aqds/eth.c\n delete mode 100644 board/nxp/ls1043ardb/eth.c\n delete mode 100644 board/nxp/ls1046aqds/eth.c\n delete mode 100644 board/nxp/p2041rdb/eth.c\n create mode 100644 board/nxp/p2041rdb/p2041rdb_rcw_sd.cfg\n rename board/nxp/p2041rdb/{rcw_p2041rdb.cfg => p2041rdb_rcw_spi.cfg} (100%)\n delete mode 100644 board/nxp/t102xrdb/eth_t102xrdb.c\n delete mode 100644 board/nxp/t104xrdb/eth.c\n delete mode 100644 board/nxp/t208xqds/eth_t208xqds.c\n delete mode 100644 board/nxp/t4rdb/eth.c\n delete mode 100644 configs/P2041RDB_NAND_defconfig"
