By moving some kirkwood files into a Marvell common directory, those files
can be used by other Marvell platforms as well. The name mvebu is taken
from the Linux kernel source tree. It has been chosen there to represent
the SoC's from the Marvell EBU (Engineering Business Unit). Those SoC's
currently are:
Armada 370/375/XP, Dove, mv78xx0, Kirkwood, Orion5x
This will be used by the upcoming Armada XP (MV78460) platform support.

Note1:
In arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/spear/Makefile
START := start.o
was changed
extra-$(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) := start.o
because spear/start.o is only used for SPL.
Note2:
START := start.o
was missing from arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/mxs/Makefile.
This commit simply adds
extra-$(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) := start.o

The decompressor expects the L2 cache to be disabled. This fixes booting
some kernels, which have CONFIG_ARM_PATCH_PHYS_VIRT enabled.

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.
