Michal Simek 23922e2676 cmd: fdt: Use separate CMD_FDT Kconfig entry instead of OF_LIBFDT
Create CMD_FDT Kconfig entry to have an option to disable fdt command
which is not required for small configuration which requires libfdt
only.
Enable it by default for all targets which enables OF_LIBFDT.

Eric Nelson e40cf34a29 drivers: block: add block device cache
Add a block device cache to speed up repeated reads of block devices by
various filesystems.

This small amount of cache can dramatically speed up filesystem
operations by skipping repeated reads of common areas of a block
device (typically directory structures).

This has shown to have some benefit on FAT filesystem operations of
loading a kernel and RAM disk, but more dramatic benefits on ext4
filesystems when the kernel and/or RAM disk are spread across
multiple extent header structures as described in commit fc0fc50.

The cache is implemented through a minimal list (block_cache) maintained
in most-recently-used order and count of the current number of entries
(cache_count). It uses a maximum block count setting to prevent copies
of large block reads and an upper bound on the number of cached areas.

The maximum number of entries in the cache defaults to 32 and the maximum
number of blocks per cache entry has a default of 2, which has shown to
produce the best results on testing of ext4 and FAT filesystems.

The 'blkcache' command (enabled through CONFIG_CMD_BLOCK_CACHE) allows
changing these values and can be used to tune for a particular filesystem
layout.

Alexander Graf b9939336d0 efi_loader: Add "bootefi" command
In order to execute an EFI application, we need to bridge the gap between
U-Boot's notion of executing images and EFI's notion of doing the same.

The best path forward IMHO here is to stick completely to the way U-Boot
deals with payloads. You manually load them using whatever method to RAM
and then have a simple boot command to execute them. So in our case, you
would do

  # load mmc 0:1 $loadaddr grub.efi
  # bootefi $loadaddr

which then gets you into a grub shell. Fdt information known to U-boot
via the fdt addr command is also passed to the EFI payload.

Simon Glass 2e192b245e Remove the cmd_ prefix from command files
Now that they are in their own directory, we can remove this prefix.
This makes it easier to find a file since the prefix does not get in the
way.

Simon Glass 72a8cf8dcc Move all command code into its own directory
There are a lot of unrelated files in common, including all of the commands.
Moving them into their own directory makes them easier to find and is more
logical.

Some commands include non-command code, such as cmd_scsi.c. This should be
sorted out at some point so that the function can be enabled with or without
the associated command.

Unfortunately, with m68k I get this error:

m68k:  +   M5329AFEE
+arch/m68k/cpu/mcf532x/start.o: In function `_start':
+arch/m68k/cpu/mcf532x/start.S:159:(.text+0x452): relocation truncated to fit: R_68K_PC16 against symbol `board_init_f' defined in .text.board_init_f section in common/built-in.o

I hope someone can shed some light on what this means. I hope it isn't
depending on the position of code in the image.
