Thanks for the review. I have also resynced the Atmel NAND driver with
Linux to get support for the new EBI binding, but I'll send that out
as a separate patch once this is in. (If you need it for your hacking,
I can push it somewhere before that though).

It's on the bucket list, but first barebox, DistroKit and then eventually
upstreaming the kernel DT.

Thanks! I will add it onto v2.

I don't have the boards, that are not yet DT-enabled, but I guess due
diligence is done if we verify that the DT-enabled drivers work on some
other SAMA5 board, which already has DT support. Now, with the NAND
driver I ported for this, there remain three drivers that I have so
far not tested:

LCD, PWM and USB (Both Host/Gadget).

If you tell me, that all these already work just fine for some SAMA5 with
DT (or that they didn't work at all for SAMA5 without DT), I can send the
patch series switching the remaining boards to multi-image.

I just observed that the info is in r4 on all SAMA5 SoCs. Maybe that's
the case for the older SoCs too?

That seems to be the case everywhere. Registers read/written by ROM code
are seldom documented.

I am doing some holiday hacking too, but on a Rockchip RK3399. :)
