This reverts commit 45f41c134baf5ff1bbf59d33027f6c79884fa4d9. This weird workaround was the best I came up with at that time to boot U-Boot from TF-A.
I noticed U-Boot successfully boots on LD20 (i.e. CA72 CPU) by using the latest TF-A. Specifically, since the following TF-A commit, U-Boot runs at EL2 instead of EL1, and this issue does not happen: |commit f998a052fd94ea082833109f25b94ed5bfa24e8b |Author: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masah...@socionext.com> |Date: Thu Jul 25 10:57:38 2019 +0900 | | uniphier: run BL33 at EL2 | | All the SoCs in 64-bit UniPhier SoC family support EL2. | | Just hard-code MODE_EL2 instead of using el_implemented() helper. | | Change-Id: I7ab48002c5205bc8c013e1b46313b57d6c431db0 | Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <yamada.masah...@socionext.com> However, if I revert that, U-Boot hangs on LD20, presumably because some EL1 code in U-Boot triggers this issue. Now that commit "arm64: issue ISB after updating system registers" fixes this issue properly, this weird workaround is unneeded irrespective of the exception level at which U-Boot runs.
