Neal Frager 4060a6d530 configs/versal_vck190: new defconfig
This patch adds support for Xilinx Versal VCK190 evaluation board.

VCK190 features can be found here:
https://www.xilinx.com/products/boards-and-kits/vck190.html

The VCK190 is based on the Xilinx Versal family:
https://www.xilinx.com/products/silicon-devices/acap/versal.html

The VC1902 included with the VCK190 evaluation board has Xilinx
AI Engine acclerators designed for accelerating machine learning
applications.  Also included is an upgrade from prior Zynq and
ZynqMP families to ARM Cortex-A72 cores.

While the Linux kernel for Versal is quite similar to ZynqMP,
the boot process has significantly changed.

Triple-redundant MicroBlaze cores are used to boot and setup
Versal devices.  For this reason, current buildroot support
will download pre-built firmware images and use Xilinx bootgen
to generate the boot.bin for the vck190.

How to build it
===============
Configure Buildroot:
$ make versal_vck190_defconfig
Compile everything and build the rootfs image:
$ make
Result of the build
-------------------
After building, you should get a tree like this:
output/images/
+-- boot.bin
+-- boot.vfat
+-- Image
+-- rootfs.ext2
+-- rootfs.ext4 -> rootfs.ext2
+-- sdcard.img
+-- system.dtb -> versal-vck190-rev1.1.dtb
`-- versal-vck190-rev1.1.dtb
How to write the SD card
========================
WARNING! This will destroy all the card content. Use with care!
The sdcard.img file is a complete bootable image ready to be written
on the boot medium. To install it, simply copy the image to an SD
card:
# dd if=output/images/sdcard.img of=/dev/sdX
Where 'sdX' is the device node of the SD.
Eject the SD card, insert it in the board, and power it up.
