Commit Message

When fit image boots from ram, the payload will
be prepared in the address of SPL_LOAD_FIT_ADDRESS.
In spl fit generic flow, it will malloc another
memory address and copy whole fit image to this
malloc address.  But it is un-necessary for booting
from RAM.

This patch improves this flow by declare the
board_spl_fit_buffer_addr() to replace the original one.
The larger image size (eq: Kernel Image 10~20MB), it
can save more booting time.

Also enhance memcpy function by checking source and
destination address. If they are the same address,
just return and don't copy data anymore.

Changes in v2
 - Move spl.c to board level instead of arch level

Starting a paragraph with "also" is a good indication that this should
be split into two separate patches.

OK, I will separate it to another patch.

OK, I will refine it.
