The BootROM in Rockchip SoCs will enter maskrom mode when boot firmware
cannot be found in nand/spi/mmc storage.

In maskrom mode the USB OTG port can accept one of two custom commands.

Initially a 0x471 command to load TPL into SRAM. After TPL has been
executed and it has returned back-to-BROM, a 0x472 command to load SPL
into start of DRAM.

This series add two binman images that can be used to RAM boot from
maskrom mode:
- u-boot-rockchip-usb471.bin that contains TPL to init DRAM.
- u-boot-rockchip-usb472.bin that contains SPL and the normal FIT
  payload with i.e. U-Boot proper, TF-A and FDT.

These images can be used with rkbin tools/boot_merger to create a loader
image to be used with rkdeveloptool or rockusb tools, e.g.:

  Create loader image:
    $ ../rkbin/tools/boot_merger ./RK3588MINIALL.ini

  Boot from maskrom:
    $ rkdeveloptool db u-boot-rockchip-rk3588-loader.bin
   or
    $ rockusb download-boot u-boot-rockchip-rk3588-loader.bin

Or directly with tools such as rkflashtool or rkusbboot:

  $ rkflashtool l < u-boot-rockchip-usb471.bin
  $ rkflashtool L < u-boot-rockchip-usb472.bin
 or
  $ rkusbboot u-boot-rockchip-usb471.bin u-boot-rockchip-usb472.bin

This series depend on the "rockchip: ROCKCHIP_COMMON_STACK_ADDR
improvements" series [1] and the "rockchip: dts: Create a template for
the FIT" patch [2]. See [3] for a branch with all depends.
