ARM: socfpga: Purge pending transactions upon enabling bridges on Gen5



On Gen5, when the FPGA is loaded and there was some prior interaction
between the HPS and the FPGA via bridges (e.g. Linux was running and
using some of the IPs in the FPGA) followed by warm reset, it has been
observed that there might be outstanding unfinished transactions. This
leads to an obscure misbehavior of the bridge.

When the bridge is enabled again in U-Boot and there are outstanding
transactions, a read from within the bridge address range would return
a result of the previous read instead. Example:
=> bridge enable ; md 0xff200000 1
ff200000: 1234abcd
=> bridge enable ; md 0xff200010 1
ff200010: 5678dcba <------- this is in fact a value which is stored in
                            a memory at 0xff200000
=> bridge enable ; md 0xff200000 1
ff200000: 90effe09 <------- this is in fact a value which is stored in
                            a memory at 0xff200010
and so it continues. Issuing a write does lock the system up completely.

This patch opens the FPGA bridges in 'bridge enable' command, the tears
them down again, and then opens them again. This allows these outstanding
transactions to complete and makes this misbehavior go away.

However, it is not entirely clear whether this is the correct solution.
