[PATCH 0/5] MIPS: xburst: add initial JZ4770 SoC support

[Antony Pavlov <antonynpavlov@xxxxxxxxx>]

This patchseries adds initial JZ4770 SoC and Ainol Novo7 Paladin tablet support.

The patchseries can be found on github:
    https://github.com/frantony/barebox/tree/20150411.jz4770

The most notable problems and todos:

  * no PBL support; I have a PBL-enabled barebox version
    for the tablet, so barebox can be used as only bootloader for tablet.
    But this version is based on some dirty hacks
    e.g. it uses special pre-compiled X-Boot blob for bootstraping.

    Nowadays barebox mips PBL is written in assembler
    and I see no way to switch it to C. gcc-4.9.1 for mips has no __naked
    directive support, see this gcc output

        $ cat > 1.c <<EOF;
        int __attribute__((naked)) __attribute__((no_instrument_function)) main()
        {
        }
        EOF

        $ /opt/mips-2014.11/bin/mips-linux-gnu-gcc -o 1.o 1.c
        1.c:2:1: warning: 'naked' attribute directive ignored [-Wattributes]
         {
         ^

    So for moving X-Boot bootstrap C-code into barebox PBL we have to convert it
    from C to assembler language :(

    Please see JZ4770 bootstrap code in these repos:

        https://github.com/gcwnow/UBIBoot/
        https://github.com/IngenicSemiconductor/X-BOOT_NPM801

  * no clk support just now; we can easely steal it from linux
    JZ4780 support code (see wip-ci20-v4.1 branch in https://github.com/paulburton/linux);

  * no hardware clocksource support; this can be easely fixed,
    see linux JZ4780 support code again;
