One (quick) way to move forward with the support of the Aspeed 
AST2400 SoC in mainline would be to use the lowlevel init routine 
of Aspeed. 

It would give us the DRAM init which is rather complex to rewrite 
and we could use and/or extend the other drivers which are already
merged in mainline. The SPI driver is still in my branch and NC-SI 
support is missing.
