ppc: e500: Bump ppce500 u-boot to v2021.04

[for-6.0 PATCH 0/3] ppc: e500: Bump ppce500 u-boot to v2021.04

Posted by Bin Meng 3 years ago

This series bumps the u-boot.e500 to v2021.04, which fixed a long
overdue broken pci issue caused by QEMU changes since Nov 2014.

While we are here, add a reST documentation for the ppce500 machine.

Please pull the full contents (binary) from https://github.com/lbmeng/qemu/
ppc branch.

This is much to late to go into ppc-for-6.0, but I'm happy to queue it
for 6.1.  However, I'm not sure which branch from your site I need to
pull in.

I think this should go 6.0 because it is a bug fix for the long
overdue broken pci support in the U-Boot binary that QEMU ships.

It's the ppc branch, as I mentioned in this cover letter.
