Until now, the function would always pass `true` as the "progress"
parameter to aw_write_buffer(). This has the potential drawback
of limiting the maximum USB transfer size.
By selectively passing `false` instead (with no progress function
active), we hint that aw_write_buffer() and subsequent routines
don't have to care about callbacks; so that usb_bulk_send() is
free to select a transfer size of AW_USB_MAX_BULK_SEND.

* fel: Add the ability to pass uEnv-style data via FEL
The corresponding format is recognized by having the environment
data (= text) start with a special "#=uEnv" marker. Upon transfer
of such a file, sunxi-fel will detect this condition, and set a
field in the SPL header accordingly - which in turn also requests
U-Boot to auto-import it (i.e. merge with the default environment).
(Note that this requires a U-Boot version that knows about the
new meaning of this field, namely v2016.09 or later. Older U-Boot
versions will fail to import the uEnv-style data.)

This commit adds a new "reset64 <addr>" command "rmr32" that could
be helpful with new 64-bit SoCs. It takes an entry point (address)
parameter, stores it via RVBAR and then issues a RMR write to
request a warm boot into AArch64 mode.
For now, this is useful with the boot process of A64, where we might
wish to transfer control to a 64-bit binary (for ATF or U-Boot).

The SCTLR bits are somewhat different because the V bit is set
to 0 on A64 (Low exception vectors, base address 0x00000000) and
the UNK bit (Reads of this bit return an UNKNOWN value) is also not
the same as on the other SoCs. So the SCTLR check can be relaxed.
Changes in v2:
- Because the SRAM A and SRAM C reside back-to-back in the address
space, it is possible to use 40 KiB of SRAM by the SPL for its
code+data+stack. So the FEL backup storage is moved from 0x18000
to 0x1A000 to support this.

Previously the backup area was allocated at the address 0x8000.
This is not very good because it means that the U-Boot SPL can
only safely use memory at addresses 0x0000-0x7FFF (32 KiB). But
if we move the backup area to the end of the SRAM A4, this can
allow U-Boot SPL to use memory 0x0000-0x9FFF (40 KiB). The BROM
can't load such large SPLs from the SD card. But the SPL still
can move its stack up to the 40 KiB boundary or do UCL or LZO
decompression at runtime to squeeze more code into it.
This patch makes the sunxi-fel tool compatible with 40 KiB SPLs,
even though the current U-Boot releases do not use them yet.

fel: Add support for multiple sequential readl/writel
There are cases where "long" reads/writes might be used to transfer
multiple values from/to sequential addresses.
When doing so, we can avoid having to setup and upload the entire
scratch buffer (ARM code) every time, by making the underlying
functions auto-increment the address on each invocation.
The patch implements this functionality, and maps the existing
aw_fel_readl() and aw_fel_writel() to special cases (count == 1).

fel: Add "readl" and "writel" commands
The read/write operations done by FEL are not suitable for accessing
hardware registers. For example, trying to read a SID value using
the "read" or "hexdump" commands results in the following:
$ sunxi-fel hexdump 0x01c23800 4
01c23800: 87 00 00 00 __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __
Apparently, FEL tries to read data one byte at a time and this does
not always work correctly. Introducing new commands to explicitly
do 32-bit reads and writes helps:
$ sunxi-fel readl 0x01c23800
0x16254187

Doing certain operations may need uploading and executing code
on the device. For example, such operations right now are
reading/writing ARM CP15 coprocessor registers. Uploading the
code to the device is naturally overwriting some part of SRAM
as a side effect. Right now it is not a problem, because the
CP15 coprocessor registers are only accessed as part of uploading
and executing U-Boot SPL. They are nicely timed not to cause
problems and the temporary scratch area gets overwritten by
the SPL code anyway.
But if we decide to provide access to such operations via
command line interface, then any side effects may potentially
cause problems for the users. Consider the following scenario:
sunxi-fel clear 0x2000 0x100 \
advanced-command-which-uploads-and-executes-code \
hexdump 0x2000 0x100
The user may rightfully expect that clearing a buffer in SRAM
to zero and then reading it back should show all zero bytes.
But inserting advanced commands in the middle may cause data
corruption.
In order to resolve this problem, just move the scratch area
away from the 0x2000-0x5BFF addresses range. These particular
addresses are already known to the users as a safe place for
their bare metal expariments in FEL mode. The "sunxi-fel spl"
command is a special case though and it is expected to
overwrite data in this area too.
A possible alternative would be to just backup & restore data
in the scratch area. But this has some disadvantages:
1. Extra code in the sunxi-fel tool and extra roundtrips over
USB to do the backup/restore job.
2. If we allow the OpenRISC core to use the 0x2000-0x5C00
range in SRAM A1, then this becomes unsafe and racy
(we can't really backup & restore data without causing
a temporarily glitch for the currently running code on
the OpenRISC core).
To sum it up. With this patch we make it so that now the
0x2000-0x5BFF range is freely available for the users of the
sunxi-fel tool. The 0x1000-0x1FFF range is off limits (the
upper part of it is used by the FEL IRQ handler, the lower
part of it is reserved for internal use by the sunxi-fel
tool). The 0x0000-0x0FFF addresses range is reserved for
passing data from the SPL to the main U-Boot binary (via
the SPL header) and is also off limits.

The BROM in newer SoC variants doesn't enable MMU by default anymore.

("fel: Faster USB transfers via 'fel write' to DRAM"), we need to
be able to enable it from the 'sunxi-fel' tool.
This patch can be interpreted as simply reverting the changes done
by Allwinner and bringing back the MMU support in roughly the same
way as it was before. That's why the values in the hardware
registers and the translation table entries replicate the A20 setup.
Additionally, the code is now more defensive and introduces new
"canary" checks for certain known magic values in the coprocessor
registers in order to safeguard against any unpleasant surprises.
MMU tuning for A80 and A64 will probably need a more sophisticated
setup with a second level page table. Because both the SRAM and
the BROM reside in the same 1MB section there and we need finer
granularity. In other words, enabling the MMU on A80 and A64 is
not supported yet.
