The hush shell dynamically allocates (and re-allocates) memory for the
argument strings in the "char *argv[]" argument vector passed to
commands. Any code that modifies these pointers will cause serious
corruption of the malloc data structures and crash U-Boot, so make
sure the compiler can check that no such modifications are being done
by changing the code into "char * const argv[]".
This modification is the result of debugging a strange crash caused
after adding a new command, which used the following argument
processing code which has been working perfectly fine in all Unix
systems since version 6 - but not so in U-Boot:
int main (int argc, char **argv)
{
while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
/* ====> */ while (*++*argv) {
switch (**argv) {
case 'd':
debug++;
break;
...
default:
usage ();
}
}
}
...
}
The line marked "====>" will corrupt the malloc data structures and
usually cause U-Boot to crash when the next command gets executed by
the shell. With the modification, the compiler will prevent this with
an
error: increment of read-only location '*argv'
N.B.: The code above can be trivially rewritten like this:
while (--argc > 0 && **++argv == '-') {
char *arg = *argv;
while (*++arg) {
switch (*arg) {
...

On the MPC85xx platform if we have SATA its connected on SERDES.
Determing if SATA is enabled via sata_initialize should not be board
specific and thus we move it out of the MPC8536DS board code.
Additionally, now that we have is_serdes_configured() we can determine
if the given SATA port is enabled and error out if its not in the
driver.

Add the ability to determine if a given IP block connected on SERDES is
configured. This is useful for things like PCIe and SRIO since they are
only ever connected on SERDES.

When DDR is in synchronous mode, the existing code assigns sysclk
frequency to DDR frequency. It should be synchronous with the platform
frequency. CPU frequency is based on platform frequency in synchronous
mode.
Also fix:
* Fixes the bit mask for DDR_SYNC (RCWSR5[184])
* Corrects the detection of synchronous mode.

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.
Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.
