[U-Boot] [PATCH] common: fdt: set the value of MEMORY_BANKS_MAX to 8

[U-Boot] [PATCH] common: fdt: set the value of MEMORY_BANKS_MAX to 8

[Anand Moon]

set the value of MEMORY_BANKS_MAX to 8.
Odroid-XU4 fails to boot with following message

fdt_fixup_memory_banks: num banks 8 exceeds hardcoded limit 4.
Recompile with higher MEMORY_BANKS_MAX?
ERROR: arch-specific fdt fixup failed
 - must RESET the board to recover.

Fixes: commit 2a1f4f1758b5 (Revert "fdt_support: Use CONFIG_NR_DRAM_BANKS if defined")

Then users can define MEMORY_BANKS at include/configs/....h
Simon, what do you say ?

My vote is for Kconfig to define this, perhaps with a defaul of 4. But
I see there is a lot of discussion and I have been out for a few
weeks, so I don't have a strong opinion.
