so write it in c

a lots of us do so, Sascha or I mostly write the lowlevel init in C now
as example the generic lowlevel arm init is done in C now

I did it recently on at91rm9200
and will update the at91sam9 to c also

mostly you can copy it but you will have to put it in the right section

First do more simple, use barebox as a second stage start by u-boot and then
write the lowloevel init

in barebox we do not have one lowlevel init per armvx but one generic one
so normally the only assembly you could have to write is the
board_lowlevel_init which can be written in C anynway
