Subject: bootstage: stash boot records to reserved mem before kernel handoff
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b6d9aa6aafc0ae2f551de301e1f371c4814cef68;p=thirdparty%2Fu-boot.git

bootstage: stash boot records to reserved mem before kernel handoff

U-Boot now stashes its bootstage buffer into a reserved memory region
whenever CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_STASH is enabled, just before exiting to the
kernel. This allows a post boot parser to read a unified timeline
(SPL→U-Boot→Kernel→MCU/DSP) directly from DDR, enabling standardized
and repeatable boot-time profiling across releases and SoCs.

Change summary:
 Call bootstage_stash_default() in announce_and_cleanup()
  when CONFIG_BOOTSTAGE_STASH is set.
