cca4e4aec1 Reduce build times
U-Boot Makefiles contain a number of tests for compiler features etc.
which so far are executed again and again.  On some architectures
(especially ARM) this results in a large number of calls to gcc.

This patch makes sure to run such tests only once, thus largely
reducing the number of "execve" system calls.

Example: number of "execve" system calls for building the "P2020DS"
(Power Architecture) and "qong" (ARM) boards, measured as:
	-> strace -f -e trace=execve -o /tmp/foo ./MAKEALL <board>
	-> grep execve /tmp/foo | wc -l

	Before: After:	Reduction:
==================================
P2020DS 20555	15205	-26%
qong	31692	14490	-54%

As a result, built times are significantly reduced, typically by
30...50%.

6d8962e814 Switch from archive libraries to partial linking
Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils.  As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".

This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.

The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o".  This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.

This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols.  Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.

e03f316974 Drop support for CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATE_UBOOT
For ARM systems, before ELF relocation was introduced,
CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATE_UBOOT coul be used to prevent *COPYING* the
U-Boot image from whereever it was loaded to it's link address
(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE).  The name was badly chosen, as no relocation
was performed at all, it was just a memcpy().

With ELF relocation, this does not work like that any more, and
related boards need to be fixed anyway.  So don't keep this relict any
longer.

a9aa392629 Drop support for CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC
When this define was introduced, the idea was to provide a soft
migration path for ARM boards to get adapted to the new relocation
support.  However, other recent changes led to a different
implementation (ELF relocation), where this no longer works.  By now
CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC does not only not help any more, but it
actually hurts because it obfuscates the actual code by sprinkling it
with lots of dead and non-working debris.

So let's make a clean cut and drop CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC.

25ddd1fb0a Replace CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE by auto-generated value
CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE has always been just a bad workarond for not
being able to use "sizeof(struct global_data)" in assembler files.
Recent experience has shown that manual synchronization is not
reliable enough.  This patch renames CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE into
GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE which gets automatically generated by the
asm-offsets tool.  In the result, all definitions of this value can be
deleted from the board config files.  We have to make sure that all
files that reference such data include the new <asm-offsets.h> file.

No other changes have been done yet, but it is obvious that similar
changes / simplifications can be done for other, related macro
definitions as well.

14d0a02a16 Rename TEXT_BASE into CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE
The change is currently needed to be able to remove the board
configuration scripting from the top level Makefile and replace it by
a simple, table driven script.

Moving this configuration setting into the "CONFIG_*" name space is
also desirable because it is needed if we ever should move forward to
a Kconfig driven configuration system.

1a27f7d9c2 ARM: Align stack to 8 bytes
The ARM ABI requires that the stack be aligned to 8 bytes as it is noted
in Procedure Call Standard for the ARM Architecture:
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ihi0042d/index.html

Unaligned SP also causes the problem with variable-length arrays
allocation when VLA address becomes less than stack pointer during
aligning of this address, so the next 'push' in the stack overwrites
first 4 bytes of VLA.

678e008c3a ARM1176: Coexist with other ARM1176 platforms
The current ARM1176 CPU specific code is too specific to the SMDK6400
architecture.  The following changes were necessary prerequisites for the
addition of other SoCs based on ARM1176.

Existing board's (SMDK6400) configuration has been modified to keep behavior
unchanged despite these changes.

1. Peripheral port remap configurability
The earlier code had hardcoded remap values specific to s3c64xx in start.S.
This change makes the peripheral port remap addresses and sizes configurable.

2. U-Boot code relocation support
Most architectures allow u-boot code to run initially at a different
address (possibly in NOR) and then get relocated to its final resting place
in RAM.  Added support for this capability in ARM1176 architecture.

3. Disable TCM if necessary
If a ROM based bootloader happened to have initialized TCM, we disable it here
to keep things sane.

4. Remove unnecessary SoC specific includes
ARM1176 code does not really need this SoC specific include.  The presence
of this include prevents builds on other ARM1176 archs.

5. Modified virt-to-phys conversion during MMU disable
The original MMU disable code masks out too many bits from the load address
when it tries to figure out the physical address of the jump target label.
Consequently, it ends up branching to the wrong address after disabling the
MMU.
