     Qualcomm External Bus Interface 2 (EBI2)
     
     The EBI2 contains two peripheral blocks: XMEM and LCDC. The XMEM handles any
     external memory (such as NAND or other memory-mapped peripherals) whereas
     LCDC handles LCD displays.
     
     As it says it connects devices to an external bus interface, meaning address
     lines (up to 9 address lines so can only address 1KiB external memory space),
     data lines (16 bits), OE (output enable), ADV (address valid, used on some
    NOR flash memories), WE (write enable). This on top of 6 different chip selects
    (CS0 thru CS5) so that in theory 6 different devices can be connected.
    
    Apparently this bus is clocked at 64MHz. It has dedicated pins on the package
    and the bus can only come out on these pins, however if some of the pins are
    unused they can be left unconnected or remuxed to be used as GPIO or in some
    cases other orthogonal functions as well.
    
    Also CS1 and CS2 has -A and -B signals. Why they have that is unclear to me.
    
    The chip selects have the following memory range assignments. This region of
    memory is referred to as "Chip Peripheral SS FPB0" and is 168MB big.

    The APQ8060 Qualcomm Application Processor User Guide, 80-N7150-14 Rev. A,
    August 6, 2012 contains some incomplete documentation of the EBI2.
    
    FIXME: the manual mentions "write precharge cycles" and "precharge cycles".
    We have not been able to figure out which bit fields these correspond to
    in the hardware, or what valid values exist. The current hypothesis is that
    this is something just used on the FAST chip selects and that the SLOW
    chip selects are understood fully. There is also a "byte device enable"
    flag somewhere for 8bit memories.
    
    FIXME: The chipselects have SLOW and FAST configuration registers. It's a bit
    unclear what this means, if they are mutually exclusive or can be used
    together, or if some chip selects are hardwired to be FAST and others are SLOW
    by design.
    
    The XMEM registers are totally undocumented but could be partially decoded
    because the Cypress AN49576 Antioch Westbridge apparently has suspiciously
    similar register layout, see: http://www.cypress.com/file/105771/download
    
    Required properties:
    - compatible: should be one of:
      "qcom,msm8660-ebi2"
      "qcom,apq8060-ebi2"
    - #address-cells: should be <2>: the first cell is the chipselect,
      the second cell is the offset inside the memory range
    - #size-cells: should be <1>
    - ranges: should be set to:
      ranges = <0 0x0 0x1a800000 0x00800000>,
               <1 0x0 0x1b000000 0x00800000>,
               <2 0x0 0x1b800000 0x00800000>,
               <3 0x0 0x1d000000 0x08000000>,
               <4 0x0 0x1c800000 0x00800000>,
               <5 0x0 0x1c000000 0x00800000>;
    - reg: two ranges of registers: EBI2 config and XMEM config areas
    - reg-names: should be "ebi2", "xmem"
    - clocks: two clocks, EBI_2X and EBI
    - clock-names: should be "ebi2x", "ebi2"
    
    Optional subnodes:
    - Nodes inside the EBI2 will be considered device nodes.
    
    The following optional properties are properties that can be tagged onto
    any device subnode. We are assuming that there can be only ONE device per
    chipselect subnode, else the properties will become ambiguous.
    
    Optional properties arrays for SLOW chip selects:
    - qcom,xmem-recovery-cycles: recovery cycles is the time the memory continues to
      drive the data bus after OE is de-asserted, in order to avoid contention on
      the data bus. They are inserted when reading one CS and switching to another
      CS or read followed by write on the same CS. Valid values 0 thru 15. Minimum
      value is actually 1, so a value of 0 will still yield 1 recovery cycle.
    - qcom,xmem-write-hold-cycles: write hold cycles, these are extra cycles
      inserted after every write minimum 1. The data out is driven from the time
      WE is asserted until CS is asserted. With a hold of 1 (value = 0), the CS
      stays active for 1 extra cycle etc. Valid values 0 thru 15.
    - qcom,xmem-write-delta-cycles: initial latency for write cycles inserted for
      the first write to a page or burst memory. Valid values 0 thru 255.
    - qcom,xmem-read-delta-cycles: initial latency for read cycles inserted for the
      first read to a page or burst memory. Valid values 0 thru 255.
    - qcom,xmem-write-wait-cycles: number of wait cycles for every write access, 0=1
      cycle. Valid values 0 thru 15.
    - qcom,xmem-read-wait-cycles: number of wait cycles for every read access, 0=1
      cycle. Valid values 0 thru 15.
    
    Optional properties arrays for FAST chip selects:
    - qcom,xmem-address-hold-enable: this is a boolean property stating that we
      shall hold the address for an extra cycle to meet hold time requirements
      with ADV assertion.
    - qcom,xmem-adv-to-oe-recovery-cycles: the number of cycles elapsed before an OE
     assertion, with respect to the cycle where ADV (address valid) is asserted.
     2 means 2 cycles between ADV and OE. Valid values 0, 1, 2 or 3.
   - qcom,xmem-read-hold-cycles: the length in cycles of the first segment of a
     read transfer. For a single read transfer this will be the time from CS
     assertion to OE assertion. Valid values 0 thru 15.
