This patch series adds support for Cadence's XSPI controller. It supports 3 work modes. 1. ACMD (auto command) work mode ACMD name is because it uses auto command engine in the controller. It further has 2 modes PIO and CDMA (command DMA). The CDMA work mode is dedicated for high-performance application where very low software overhead is required. In this mode the Command Engine is programmed by the series of linked descriptors stored in system memory. These descriptors provide commands to execute and store status information for finished commands. The PIO mode work mode is dedicated for single operation where constructing a linked list of descriptors would require too much effort. 2. STIG (Software Triggered Instruction Generator) work mode In STIG mode, controller sends low-level instructions to memory. Each instruction is 128-bit width. There is special instruction DataSequence which carries information about data phase. Driver uses Slave DMA interface to transfer data as only this interface can be used in STIG work mode. 3. Direct work mode This work mode allows sending data without invoking any command through the slave interface. Currently ACMD PIO mode is used for NOR flash read, program, erase operations, all other operations are handled in STIG work mode. Changes since v2: 1. Removed extra lock around exec_op. 2. Removed PHY parameters setting from the driver, those will be handled by bootstrap pins available in the controller. Changes since v1: 1. Use ACMD PIO work mode for NOR read, program and erase operations, for everything else use STIG(Software Triggered Instruction Generator) work mode. 2. Changes suggested by Lukas.
