v2023.06.0

Hi All,

It's the longest (or shortest) day of the year, let's celebrate this
with a new barebox release: v2023.06.0 is out.

This release brings us CI implemented in GitHub actions. With this each
push to the GitHub barebox repository triggers a build of all
defconfigs. Also the images we have Qemu support for get runtime tested
with the selftest framework Ahmad created. We are confident that this
increases the quality of the barebox releases in future. See
https://github.com/barebox/barebox/actions for the current status.

Also there is a MMU rework on ARM within this release. We previously
used 1MiB (1GiB on Aarch64) sections in early MMU setup and reconfigured
the MMU during barebox startup. Now we use 4KiB pages directly in the
early code.  This has the advantage that we do not have to reconfigure
the MMU and that we can properly set the XN flag for areas used by the
secure world in early code so that the CPU cannot speculate into these
protected areas. Based on that Ahmad then added support for non-1:1
mappings in arch_remap_range which helps in some situations where
devices are mapped to 0x0, we had to disable NULL pointer protection in
these cases.

Beginning with v2023.06.0 barebox has support for the Rockchip RK3588
SoC. The only board supported so far is the Radxa Rock 5b. As this
particular board has ethernet connected to PCI instead of using the
SoC internal network controller, we have support for that as well.
Along with this the RTL8169 got an overhaul, the old driver supported
only a fraction of the available devices with the one found on the
Rock 5b not being one of it.

barebox manipulates the Linux device tree in many ways which sometimes
causes problems. There is a new command to help debugging these
problems. The of_fixup command allows to list the fixups that will be
applied on the Linux device tree and offers options to disable/enable
them one by one, so it will be easier to find problematic fixups.

As usual, there are several other changes not explicitly mentioned here,
see below for a full list.

Have Fun!
 Sascha
