[PATCH 0/11] ARM: at91: Add pbl support to skov-arm9cpu

The following is the current set of patches so far to support
PBL for the skov-arm9cpu.

The pwm is not really part of this - but it is part of the story.
The patch-set was triggered when someone reported a bug in the 
atmel pwm code. The code did not build - so I ported it over.
Now I wanted to boot the target, but at91bootstrap no longer
supports the at91sam9263. So I decided to try to make it work
in barebox. I have tried this before and failed - but it should
be possible...

What I have made is modelled on top of all the great work
for other more modern atmel bouards.

v2:
 - The first stage bootloader works - thanks to feedback from Ahmad!
 - Add support for non-high capacity SD cards, as required by at91sam9 (Ahmad)
 - Replace hardcoded delay loops with pit based early delays (Ahmad)
 - Several adjustments to skov-arm9cpu code to fit the changes

The following patches are not ready:
- atmel_lcdfb: add support for updated DT bindings
- ARM: at91: Update DTS for skov-arm9cpu

They both rely on updated bindings that has not landed yet,
and which may end up not being compatible with the changes
implemented here.
So the patches works - but bindings are work-in-progress.

My plan is to resurrect my drm driver for at91sam9 and
with that the update the binding file. But timeline
for this work is unknowm.

In other words - I assume patch 1 to 8 + 10 as ready.
Patch 9 + 11 are WIP.
