pekon gupta 3df3bc1e1d board/ti/am335x: add support for beaglebone NOR Cape
This patch adds support of NOR cape[1] for both Beaglebone (white) and
Beaglebone(Black) boards. NOR Flash on this cape is connected to GPMC
chip-select[0] and accesses as external memory-mapped device.
This cape has 128Mbits(16MBytes), x16, CFI compatible NOR Flash device.

As GPMC chip-select[0] can be shared by multiple capes so NOR profile is
not enabled by default in boards.cfg. Following changes are required to
enable NOR cape detection when building am335x_boneblack board profile.

The common CFI driver provides this weak default implementation for
flash_cmd_reset():
void __flash_cmd_reset(flash_info_t *info)
{
/*
* We do not yet know what kind of commandset to use, so we issue
* the reset command in both Intel and AMD variants, in the hope
* that AMD flash roms ignore the Intel command.
*/
flash_write_cmd(info, 0, 0, AMD_CMD_RESET);
flash_write_cmd(info, 0, 0, FLASH_CMD_RESET);
}
void flash_cmd_reset(flash_info_t *info)
__attribute__((weak,alias("__flash_cmd_reset")));
Some flash chips seems to have trouble with this reset sequence. In this case
the board specific code can override this weak default version with a board
specific function. For example the digsy_mtc board equipped with the M29W128GH
from Numonyx needs this version to function properly:
void flash_cmd_reset(flash_info_t *info)
{
flash_write_cmd(info, 0, 0, AMD_CMD_RESET);
}
