[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/4 v4] arm: socfpga: Add Cadence QSPI support

Hi!

So this is my 4th posting regarding the Candence SPI driver on SoCFPGA.

Again, SPI NOR flash is working. At least on SoCrates and on another
custom SoCFPGA based board. The main change in this version is, that
the Cadence driver now is a driver model (DM) based driver. And this
needs the DT support which I posted just before.

One of the reasons to enable DT support in SoCFPGA is, that I need to
support multiple different SPI controllers for this platform. This is
the QSPI Cadence controller and the Designware SPI master controller.
Both are implemented in the SoCFPGA. And enabling both controllers is
only possible by using the new driver model (DM). The DM SPI code
only supports DT based probing. So it was easier to move SoCFPGA to
DT than to add the (deprecated) platform-data based probing to the
DM SPI suport.

Note that I have patches to support the Designware SPI master
controller also via DM in the queue. I'll post them shortly.

Thanks,
Stefan
