+/*
+ * This file handles the target-independent stages of the U-Boot
+ * start-up where a C runtime environment is needed. Its entry point
+ * is _main and is branched into from the target's start.S file.
+ *
+ * _main execution sequence is:
+ *
+ * 1. Set up initial environment for calling board_init_f().
+ *    This environment only provides a stack and a place to store
+ *    the GD ('global data') structure, both located in some readily
+ *    available RAM (SRAM, locked cache...). In this context, VARIABLE
+ *    global data, initialized or not (BSS), are UNAVAILABLE; only
+ *    CONSTANT initialized data are available.
+ *
+ * 2. Call board_init_f(). This function prepares the hardware for
+ *    execution from system RAM (DRAM, DDR...) As system RAM may not
+ *    be available yet, , board_init_f() must use the current GD to
+ *    store any data which must be passed on to later stages. These
+ *    data include the relocation destination, the future stack, and
+ *    the future GD location.
+ *
+ * (the following applies only to non-SPL builds)
+ *
+ * 3. Set up intermediate environment where the stack and GD are the
+ *    ones allocated by board_init_f() in system RAM, but BSS and
+ *    initialized non-const data are still not available.
+ *
+ * 4. Call relocate_code(). This function relocates U-Boot from its
+ *    current location into the relocation destination computed by
+ *    board_init_f().
+ *
+ * 5. Set up final environment for calling board_init_r(). This
+ *    environment has BSS (initialized to 0), initialized non-const
+ *    data (initialized to their intended value), and stack in system
+ *    RAM. GD has retained values set by board_init_f(). Some CPUs
+ *    have some work left to do at this point regarding memory, so
+ *    call c_runtime_cpu_setup.
+ *
+ * 6. Branch to either nand_boot() or board_init_r().
