This avoids a possible overwrite of the (end of) ramdisk by u-boot.
The unused memory region for ppc boot currently starts 1k below the
do_bootm->bootm_start->arch_lmb_reserve stack ptr. This isn't enough since
do_bootm->do_bootm_linux->boot_relocate_fdt calls printf which may
very well use more than 1k stack space.

also tested on these boards (albeit with a less accurate
boottime measurement method):
seconds: before after
8349MDS ~2.6 ~2.2
8360MDS ~2.8 ~2.6
8313RDB ~2.5 ~2.3 #nand boot
837xRDB ~3.1 ~2.3
also tested on an 8323ERDB.
v2: also remove the delayed icache enablement assumption in arch ppc's
board.c, and add a CONFIG_MPC83xx define in the ITX config file for
consistency (even though it was already being defined in 83xx'
config.mk).

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.
