1f52d89f2b arm: fixloop(): do not use r8 for relocation
r8 is used for global_data and should therefore be left alone!

For C code the compiler flag --fixed-r8 does the job, but in assembler
we need to be aware of that fact.

a1a47d3c57 arm: relocate_code(): do not set register useless
In case we are still at relocation target address before relocation we
do not need to load the registers needed for relocation. We should
instead skip the whole relocation part and jump over to clear_bss
immediately.

a78fb68f71 arm: copy_loop(): use scratch register
This patch uses r1 as scratch register for copy_loop(). Therefore we do
not longer need r7 for the storage of relocate_code()'s 'addr_moni' (the
destination address of relocation).
Therefore r7 can be used later on for other purposes.

e03f316974 Drop support for CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATE_UBOOT
For ARM systems, before ELF relocation was introduced,
CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATE_UBOOT coul be used to prevent *COPYING* the
U-Boot image from whereever it was loaded to it's link address
(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE).  The name was badly chosen, as no relocation
was performed at all, it was just a memcpy().

With ELF relocation, this does not work like that any more, and
related boards need to be fixed anyway.  So don't keep this relict any
longer.

a9aa392629 Drop support for CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC
When this define was introduced, the idea was to provide a soft
migration path for ARM boards to get adapted to the new relocation
support.  However, other recent changes led to a different
implementation (ELF relocation), where this no longer works.  By now
CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC does not only not help any more, but it
actually hurts because it obfuscates the actual code by sprinkling it
with lots of dead and non-working debris.

So let's make a clean cut and drop CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC.

79e6313936 ARM: use the same branch insn on all architectures
For the "fixloop" implementation in start.S a number of different
instructions was used.  Unify code so all architectures use "blo"
here because it is more robust in case of incorrect alignments.

25ddd1fb0a Replace CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE by auto-generated value
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.

14d0a02a16 Rename TEXT_BASE into CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE
The change is currently needed to be able to remove the board
configuration scripting from the top level Makefile and replace it by
a simple, table driven script.

Moving this configuration setting into the "CONFIG_*" name space is
also desirable because it is needed if we ever should move forward to
a Kconfig driven configuration system.

da90d4ce38 arm: bugfix: replace ble with blo in start.S files
Generalized misuse of ble within relocation and bss
initialization loops caused one iteration too many.
Instead of ble ('branch if lower or equal'), use
blo ('branch if lower').

While we're at it, fix all 'addreee' typos.

1a27f7d9c2 ARM: Align stack to 8 bytes
The ARM ABI requires that the stack be aligned to 8 bytes as it is noted
in Procedure Call Standard for the ARM Architecture:
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ihi0042d/index.html

Unaligned SP also causes the problem with variable-length arrays
allocation when VLA address becomes less than stack pointer during
aligning of this address, so the next 'push' in the stack overwrites
first 4 bytes of VLA.
