d29d17d7ba powerpc/mpc83xx: Migrate from spd_sdram to unified DDR driver
Unified DDR driver is maintained for better performance, robustness and bug
fixes. Upgrading to use unified DDR driver for MPC83xx takes advantage of
overall improvement. It requires changes for board files to customize
platform-dependent parameters.

To utilize the unified DDR driver, a board needs to define CONFIG_FSL_DDRx
in the header file. No more boards will be accepted without such definition.

Note: the workaround for erratum DDR6 for the very old MPC834x Rev 1.0/1.1
and MPC8360 Rev 1.1/1.2 parts is not migrated to unified driver.

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.

a47a12becf Move arch/ppc to arch/powerpc
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.
