SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel style

When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.

In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.

This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

Also rename some existing defines (e.g. dropping _GCTRL) and make

sunxi: video: Use frontend for dma on sun4i to fix memory bandwidth problems

Testing has shown that on sun4i the display backend engine does not have
deep enough fifo-s causing flickering / tearing in full-hd mode due to
fifo underruns. On sun4i use the display frontend engine to do the dma from
memory, as the frontend does have deep enough fifo-s.

As added advantage of this is that it results in much better memory bandwidth
as it reduces the amount of dram bank switches, for more details see:

http://ssvb.github.io/2014/11/11/revisiting-fullhd-x11-desktop-performance-of-the-allwinner-a10.html

Note that this changes the pipeline searched for in the simplefb node, we can
get away with doing this now, since no kernel has yet shipped with simplefb
dtb nodes, and I will make sure to get a simplefb node with the new pipeline
into 3.19 before it ships.

sunxi: display: Make lcd display clk phase configurable

While running some tests with an Olinuxino-A13-Micro + a 7" Olimex LCD module
I noticed that the screen flickered. This is caused by the lcd display clk
phase reg value being set to 0, where it should be 1 in this setup.

This commit adds a Kconfig option for the lcd display clk phase, so that we
can set it per board. This defaults to 1, because looking at all the fex
files in sunxi-boards, that is by far the most used value.

This commit updated the Ippo and MSI Primo73 tablet defconfigs to override the
default of 1 with 0, as that is the correct value for those tablets, this
keeps the register settings the same as before this commit.

The Olinuxino-A13 defconfigs are not updated, changing the register setting
for these boards from 0 to 1, this is intentional.

sunxi: video: Set input sync enable

Add a write to the "unknown" (*) register to enable auto input sync, when
initially adding sunxi hdmi output support this magic write from the android
kernel code was missed, causing lcdc -> hdmi encoder sync problems.

With this write added, we can drop the modesetting retries and the extra
delays added to work around these sync problems.

With the retries dropped there also is no need to 0 all the enable flags at
the beginning of the modeset, as they are initialized to 0 already by
engines_init.

sunxi: video: Add hdmi support

So far we've been programming the hdmi-encoder to send out dvi data over the
hdmi connector. This works well for most devices, including hdmi devices, but
not all devices accept dvi data on a hdmi input.

Add support for sending proper hdmi data over the hdmi output found on most
sunxi boards. This can be turned on by adding monitor=hdmi as option to the
video-mode env. variable.

A follow up patch will determine whether to send dvi or hdmi automatically when
EDID is used.

This adds a fixed mode hdmi driver for the sunxi platform. The fixed
mode is a relatively safe 1024x768, more complete EDID handling is
currently not provided. Only HDMI is supported today.

This code is enabled when HPD detects an attached monitor.

Current config is such that 8MB is shaved off at the top of the RAM.
This avoids several memory handling issues, most significant is the fact
that on linux on ARM you are not allowed to remap known RAM as IO. A
clued in display driver will be able to recycle this reserved RAM in
future though.

cfbconsole was chosen as it provides the most important functionality: a
