[PATCH] ARM: i.MX8M: remove early handoff-data handling

[Marco Felsch]

Commit fd1fbc15d5b9 ("ARM: i.MX: move handoff-data out of OCRAM") added
the support to store early handoff-data within DRAM. As the commit says
this says, this was to be prepared for early-board handoff data passing.

The commit added the support only for i.MX8MM and i.MX93. All other
i.MX8MQ/P/N platforms are left out. This isn't very intuitiv given that
the commit prepared the common code base for future usage.

Furthermore putting the handoff data infront of the bootloader caused a
regression on a custom i.MX8MM board which makes use of the
__imx8mm_load_and_start_image_via_tfa() because barebox is directly
loaded behind secure marked memory.

This partly reverts fd1fbc15d5b9 ("ARM: i.MX: move handoff-data out of
OCRAM") because the early board handoff-data is still unused after a
year and it aligns the common bootflow for i.MX8MQ/P/N/M again.

Hi,

I wasn't shure how to handle this regression, but in the end I went this
way. Of course I could adapt the lowlevel board code as well to honor
the handoff_data_size(). But I went this way, since this was implemented
for i.MX8MM SoCs only and there is actual no user of it.

That beeing said, IMHO the early board lowlevel handoff-data handling
should be done by the board lowlevel code because the location is very
board specific.

Regards,
 Marco
