Add more bootloading details for E850-96 board. New sections cover next
topics:
- Hardware configuration of the boot device
- Flashing and updating the software (multiple methods)
- Booting with Standard Boot (multiple methods)
- EFI System Partition structure for E850-96
- Loadable firmware (LDFW) note
- Ethernet and USB Host Support
That documents all recently enabled U-Boot features for E850-96, which
can hopefully make U-Boot more useful for the users and developers of
this platform.

The documentation of bootmeth rauc in some aspects does not reflect the
real program flow. Specifically the reset of boot tries in case of "no
more slots found" is incorrect (it won't change BOOT_ORDER).
Also the search sequence for boot scripts was mixed and incomplete.
Fix these points in the documentation.

This patch series modernizes U-Boot's code formatting infrastructure by
with current Linux kernel practices and providing a more robust and

The U-Boot coding style guide has been updated to include information
about using the `.clang-format` configuration file for automatic code
formatting. This ensures consistent formatting across the entire
codebase and aligns with Linux kernel coding standards. The goal with
introducing a predefined coding style is consistency rather than
personal preference.
The .clang-format file is copied directly from the Linux kernel without
any modifications, ensuring complete compatibility with kernel coding
standards.
Include comprehensive best practices for using clang-format,
specifically guidance on formatting only changed blocks versus entire
files, creating separate formatting-only commits for better code review,
and leveraging git clang-format for targeted formatting. Add examples of
editor integrations. This enhancement will help maintainers and
contributors to easily adhere to U-Boot coding standards.

Introduce two new parameters to be used with mkimage -f auto to bundle
TFA BL31 image into fitImage, using auto-generated fitImage. Add -y to
specify TFA BL31 file name and -Y to specify TFA BL31 load and entry
point address. This is meant to be used with systems which boot all of
TFA BL31, Linux and its DT from a single fitImage, all booted by U-Boot.
Example invocation:
"
$ mkimage -E -A arm64 -C none -e 0x50200000 -a 0x50200000 -f auto \
-d arch/arm64/boot/Image \
-b arch/arm64/boot/dts/renesas/r8a779g3-sparrow-hawk.dtb \
-y ../tfa/build/rcar_gen4/release/bl31.bin -Y 0x46400000 \
/path/to/output/fitImage
"
Documentation update and test are also included, the test validates
both positive and negative test cases, where fitImage does not include
TFA BL31 and does include TFA BL31 blobs.

The existing compatible name for U-Boot's k3 system controller driver
i.e "ti,am625-system-controller" has been added to linux[1] device-tree.
This compatible in kernel is meant for configuring the Control Module
registers (CTRL_MMR0).
However in U-Boot, the matching driver was being used to load the system
firmware on the secure M-cores by the R5 SPL and therefore must be
updated to a different compatible to avoid conflicts.
Therefore, this patch renames all references of the compatible to
"ti,am654-tisci-rproc-r5". The "-r5" is appended so as to avoid any
future conflicts since r5 specific compatibles should only be useful for
U-Boot.
