We plan to move architecture-specific data into a separate structure so
that we can make the rest of it common.
As a first step, create struct arch_global_data to hold these fields.
Initially it is empty.
This patch applies to all archs at once. I can split it if this is really
a pain.

These were removed, but actually are useful.
Cold means that we started from a reset/power on.
Warm means that we started from another U-Boot.
We determine whether u-boot on x86 was warm or cold booted (really if
it started at the beginning of the text segment or at the ELF entry point).
We plumb the result through to the global data structure.

This change adds a pointer to the global data structure in x86 to point to
the device tree. This mirrors an identical pointer in ARM.

I suspect these includes were usually available because something else
included them earlier or because they were brought in transitively.

Putting global data on the stack simplifies the init process (and makes it
slightly quicker). During the 'flash' stage of the init sequence, global
data is in the CAR stack. After SDRAM is initialised, global data is copied
from CAR to the SDRAM stack

So it can be used as a type in struct global_data and remove an ugly typecast

All the global flag defines are the same across all arches. So unify them
in one place, and add a simple way for arches to extend for their needs.

Use the base address of the 'F' segment as a pointer to the global data
structure. By adding the linear address (i.e. the 'D' segment address) as
the first word of the global data structure, the address of the global data
relative to the 'D' segment can be found simply, for example, by:
fs movl 0, %eax
This makes the gd 'pointer' writable prior to relocation (by reloading the
Global Desctriptor Table) which brings x86 into line with all other arches
NOTE: Writing to the gd 'pointer' is expensive (but we only do it
twice) but using it to access global data members (read and write) is
still fairly cheap

Changes for v2:
- Rebased against changes made to patch #3
- Removed extra indent
- Tweaked commit message
Allow redirection of console output prior to console initialisation to a
temporary buffer.
To enable this functionality, the board (or arch) must define:
- CONFIG_PRE_CONSOLE_BUFFER - Enable pre-console buffer
- CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_ADDR - Base address of pre-console buffer
- CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ - Size of pre-console buffer (in bytes)
The pre-console buffer will buffer the last CONFIG_PRE_CON_BUF_SZ bytes
Any earlier characters are silently dropped.
