Note this is a tree-wide change affecting multiple architectures.
At present we use __bss_start, but mostly __bss_end__. This seems
inconsistent and in a number of places __bss_end is used instead.
Change to use __bss_end for the BSS end symbol throughout U-Boot. This
makes it possible to use the asm-generic/sections.h file on all
archs.

This patch removes the architecture specific implementation of
version_string where possible. Some architectures use a special place
and therefore we provide U_BOOT_VERSION_STRING definition and a common
weak symbol version_string.

-msingle-pic-base is a new gcc option for ppc and
it reduces the size of my u-boot with 6-8 KB.
While at it, add -fno-jump-tables too to save a
few more bytes.
-msingle-pic-base will be in gcc 4.6, however
backported patches are available at

Currently, _end is used for end of BSS section. We want _end to mean
end of u-boot image, so we rename _end to __bss_end__ first.

The fixup procedure just stored a constant value in the
fixup table rather than just adjusting the table.
Although that doesn't seem to do any harm, it prevents
relocation more that once.

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.

The fixup routine must not fixup NULL pointers.
Problem can be seen by
char *testfun(void) __attribute__((weak));
char *(*myfun)(void) = testfun;
Then add
printf("myfun:%p, &myfun:%p\n", myfun, &myfun);
before relocation and after relocation.
myfun should be NULL in both cases but it is not.

Now that warm booting is not supported, there isn't a need for the
BOOTFLAG_COLD and BOOTFLAG_WARM defines, so remove them.
Note that this change makes the board info bd_bootflags field useless.
It will always be set to 0, but we leave it around so that we don't
break the board info structure that some OSes are expecting to be passed
from U-Boot.

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.
