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.

There were some #undef's of CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC added to a few board
configs as part of the arm relocation series; but these are not needed now as we
do not #undef what is not #defined in the first place.

Change the implementation for arm926 to relocate the code to
an arbitrary address in RAM.
Adapt the TX25 (i.MX25), magnesium board to test the changes.
On the tx25 board TEXT_BASE is set to the final relocation
address to prevent one more copying of u-boot code
when relocating. More info see:

Enable "cache" command on tx25 and magnesium board and test performance.
Test 1: Loading 127 MB of data from NAND flash into RAM:
Instr. Cache off on on
Data Cache off off on
--------------------------------------------------
magnesium 32,6s 22,5s 30s = x 1,09
tx25 (29MB only) 9,69s 5,05s 8,16s = x 1,19
Test 2: uncompressing a gzipped image from RAM to RAM
(size compressed: 6.5 MiB, uncompressed: 35 MiB):
Instr. Cache off on on
Data Cache off off on
--------------------------------------------------
magnesium 4,25s 2,08s 1,72s = x 2,47
tx25 4,82s 2,04s 1,84s = x 2,62

This patch adds support for the magnesium board from
projectiondesign. This board uses i.MX27 SoC and has
8MB NOR flash, 128MB NAND flash, FEC ethernet controller
integrated into i.MX27. As this port is based on
the imx27lite port, common config options are collected
in include/configs/imx27lite-common.h
