<title>spl: Add support for Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU) over PCIe</title>

<id>cde77583cf0b54dd572a38acd159ded7dd5e3e86</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduces support for Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU) over PCIe in
U-Boot. Traditionally, the DFU protocol is used over USB, where a
device enters DFU mode and allows a host to upload firmware or binary
images directly via the USB interface. This is a widely adopted and
convenient method for updating firmware.

In the context of Texas Instruments (TI) SoCs, PCIe can be used as a
boot interface in a manner that differs from the conventional
"PCIe Boot" process, which typically refers to booting an OS or
firmware image from an NVMe SSD or other PCIe-attached storage devices.
Instead, TI SoCs can be configured as a PCIe Endpoint, allowing a
connected PCIe Root Complex (host) to transfer images directly into the
device’s memory over the PCIe bus for boot purposes. This mechanism is
analogous to DFU over USB, but leverages the high-speed PCIe link and
does not depend on traditional storage devices.

By extending the DFU framework in U-Boot to support PCIe, it will be
possible to flash images over PCIe. While this implementation is
motivated by TI SoC use cases, the framework is generic and can be
adopted by everyone for platforms that support PCIe Endpoint mode.
Platforms with hardware support for PCIe-based memory loading can use
this to implement PCIe as a boot mode, as well as to enable flashing
and recovery scenarios similar to DFU over USB.

In summary, enable support for:
- DFU-style flashing of firmware/images over PCIe, analogous to existing
USB DFU workflows
- PCIe as a boot mode where a host can load images directly into device
memory using DFU over PCIe

Rather than having every caller set this up individually, create a
common init function. This allows new fields to be added without the
risk of them being left uninited.

When bringing in the series 'arm: dts: am62-beagleplay: Fix Beagleplay
Ethernet"' I failed to notice that b4 noticed it was based on next and
so took that as the base commit and merged that part of next to master.

This reverts commit c8ffd1356d42223cbb8c86280a083cc3c93e6426, reversing
changes made to 2ee6f3a5f7550de3599faef9704e166e5dcace35.

<title>spl: Only support bl_len when we have to</title>

<id>5271e359a46cc6a60d0048576326e2fa1527f231</id>
<content type='text'>
Aligning addresses and sizes causes overhead which is unnecessary when we
are not loading from block devices. Remove bl_len when it is not needed.

For example, on iot2050 we save 144 bytes with this patch (once the rest of
this series is applied):

add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/3 up/down: 0/-144 (-144)
Function                                     old     new   delta
spl_load_simple_fit                          920     904     -16
load_simple_fit                              496     444     -52
spl_spi_load_image                           384     308     -76
Total: Before=87431, After=87287, chg -0.16%

We use panic() instead of BUILD_BUG_ON in spl_set_bl_len because we still
need to be able to compile it for things like mmc_load_image_raw_sector,
even if that function will not be used.

This CONFIG is used but is not given a value by some boards. Use
a default value of 0 explicitly, rather than relying on the 0 value
provided by CONFIG_SPL_LOAD_FIT_ADDRESS

This will allow us to make SPL_LOAD_FIT_ADDRESS depend on SPL_LOAD_FIT
as it should.
