Because a gpimage cannot be detected, a false
GP header is printed instead of checking
for further image types.

Move gpimage as last to be linked, letting check
all other image types and printing a GP header just
in case no image is detected.

<title>Respect SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH when building FIT images.</title>

Embedding timestamps in FIT images results in unreproducible builds
for targets that generate a fit image, such as dra7xx_evm.

This patch uses the SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH environment variable, when set,
to use specified value for the date.

Thanks to HW42 for debugging the issue and providing the patch:

<title>mkimage: fit: spl: Add an optional static offset for external data</title>

When building a FIT with external data (-E), U-Boot proper may require
absolute positioning for executing the external firmware. To acheive this
use the (-p) switch, which will replace the amended 'data-offset' with
'data-position' indicating the absolute position of external data.

It is considered an error if the requested absolute position overlaps with the
initial data required for the compact FIT.

<title>tools: moveconfig: show suspicious boards with possible misconversion</title>

There are some cases where config options are moved, but they are
ripped off at the final savedefconfig stage:

  - The moved option is not user-configurable, for example, due to
    a missing prompt in the Kconfig entry

  - The config was not defined in the original config header despite
    the Kconfig specifies it as non-bool type

  - The config define in the header contains reference to another
    macro, for example:
        #define CONFIG_CONS_INDEX     (CONFIG_SYS_LPC32XX_UART - 2)
    The current moveconfig does not support recursive macro expansion.

In these cases, the conversion is very likely to be an unexpected
result.  That is why I decided to display the log in yellow color
in commit 5da4f857beac ("tools: moveconfig: report when CONFIGs are
removed by savedefconfig").

It would be nice to display the list of suspicious boards when the
tool finishes processing.  It is highly recommended to check the
defconfigs once again when this message is displayed.

Since commit 1d085568b3de ("tools: moveconfig: display log atomically
in more readable format"), the function color_text() is clever enough
to exclude LF from escape sequences.  Exploit it for removing the
"for" loops from Slots.show_failed_boards().

Also, display "(the list has been saved in moveconfig.failed)" if
there are failed boards.

The subprocess.Popen() does not change the child process's working
directory if cwd=None is given.  Let's exploit this fact to refactor
the source directory handling.

We no longer have to pass "-C &lt;reference_src_dir&gt;" to the sub-process
because self.current_src_dir tracks the source tree against which we
want to run defconfig/autoconf.

The flag self.use_git_ref is not necessary either because we can know
the current state by checking whether the self.current_src_dir is a
valid string or None.

The class WorkDir can be used in a very generic way, but currently
it is only used for containing a reference source directory.

This commit changes it for a more dedicated use.  The move_config
function can be more readable by enclosing the git-clone and git-
checkout in the class constructor.

When moving an integer type option with default value 1, the tool
moves configs with the same value as the default (, and then removed
by the later savedefconfig).  This is a needless operation.

The KconfigParser.parse_one_config() should compare the config after
the "=y -&gt; =1" fixup.

<title>tools: fix define2mk.sed to not add quotes around negative integers</title>

<content type='text'>
The sed script, tools/scripts/define2mk.sed, converts config defines
from C headers into include/autoconf.mk for the use in Makefiles.

I found the tool adds quotes around negative integer values.

For example, at the point of the v2016.07-rc1 tag,
include/configs/microblaze-generic.h defines
  #define CONFIG_BOOTDELAY         -1     /* -1 disables auto-boot */

Because it is an integer option, it should be converted to:
  CONFIG_BOOTDELAY=-1

But, the script actually converts it to:
  CONFIG_BOOTDELAY="-1"

This is a fatal problem for the tools/moveconfig.py because it parses
include/autoconf.mk for the config defines from the board headers.
CONFIG_BOOTDELAY="-1" is considered as a string type option and it
is dropped due to the type mismatch from the entry in Kconfig.

This commit fixes the script so that the tools/moveconfig.py can
correctly convert integer options with a negative value.

This option allows the 'make autoconf.mk' step to run against a former
repo state, while the savedefconfig step runs against the current repo
state. This is convenient for the case where something in the Kconfig
has changed such that the defconfig is no longer complete with the new
Kconfigs. This feature allows the .config to be built assuming those old
Kconfigs, but then savedefconfig based on the new state of the Kconfigs.

If in doubt, always specify this switch. It will always do the right
thing even if not required, but if it was required and you don't use it,
the moved configs will be incorrect. When not using this switch, you
must very carefully evaluate that all moved configs are correct.
