Hi Jens,

The EMAC needs SRAM block A3_A4 being mapped to EMAC peripheral to

Falcon Mode, for example, skips emac initialization and SRAM would
stay mapped to the CPU.

Thanks for reviving this.

I don't think that using a syscon is the right solution here.

All this SRAM mapping thing is mutually exclusive, and will possibly
impact other drivers as well.

Each single SRAM area can only be mapped to a single peripheral, so as long as the driver only changes bits related to his own area nothing can go wrong I believe.

SRAM_C2 looks like it can be mapped do different devices (AE, CE, ACE), but as far as I understand this, they are all related to the ACE device, sharing a common register space, and would have to be handled by a single driver anyway (if that will ever happen without docs) https://linux-sunxi.org/ACE_Register_guide

I think this is a more a case for a small driver in drivers/soc that
would take care of this, and make sure that client drivers don't step
on each other's toe.

I'm not convinced this is necessary, but what would this driver do different than a basic regmap? Check if the area is already mapped by any driver and deny mapping it again by a different driver? Which different driver, each area is only interesting for a single device/driver? Except maybe mapping it to CPU as general purpose sram, but that would need some direct agreement with the driver to steal its memory anyway.
