Hi all,

This patchset adds support for SolidRun MacchiatoBin board based on
Marvell Armada 8040 SoC. For convenience the following two different
build configurations are added:

- mainline BSP
  mainline Linux v4.13.11 and U-Boot v2017.09

- vendor BSP (enables more hardware)
  BSP from Marvell based on Linux 4.4.52 and U-Boot v2017.03

Patches are rebased on top of next branch.

Regards,
Sergey

 Do we really want to have defconfigs for both upstream and vendor BSP?
Especially because we will also probably have a graphical defconfig later...
This way, we end up with 3-4 defconfigs per board, for dozens of boards...

 That said, I do think it is useful to have both of these for this specific
board. It's just that I'm afraid we're going to be overwhelmed by the number of
defconfigs...

 What do the others think?

 Arnout

This board has no native graphic interface. So you can think of it as a basic 
(mainline) defconfig, and a fully featured (vendor) defconfig. This is similar 
to the basic and "demo" defconfigs that we have for other boards.
