Introduce arch_early_init_r() function, which can be useful for doing
early initialization after relocation has happened.

Perhaps I just overlooked earlier conversations, but why not just do
this in board_init() ?

Because we have multiple boards and they all need it.

And you aren't architectured with a common board_init() over the family
(would there be little to no duplication)?  This is what we do in
various TI families.

Common board_init() ? How would you then do the actual distinct per-board init?

Pah, mis-recalled things, sorry.  We have a pre-relocation hook that's
common per-family (lowlevel_init (generic) -> s_init (TI generic)).

We never check return status, make this a void?  As Wolfgang has said
before, just because the other examples do things wrong doesn't mean we
should keep doing it :)

The INIT_FUNC patch series will require that the board_init...() functions
get flattened to simply processing loops and all of these extra functions
that have crept in outside those loops be moved into the init arrays.

Have a look at arch/x86/lib/board.c for reference

Defining these functions as returning int with no parameters will make
that work a lot easier

Graeme

Are we getting anywhere with this patchset please?

Looking forward for it to be applied :-)

Applied to u-boot-arm (with an addmittedly very slow sensitivity to
prodding), thanks.
