With recent toolchain versions, some boards would not build because
or errors like this one (here for ocotea board when building with
ELDK 4.2 beta):
ppc_4xx-ld: section .bootpg [fffff000 -> fffff23b] overlaps section .bss [fffee900 -> fffff8ab]
For many boards, the .bss section is big enough that it wraps around
at the end of the address space (0xFFFFFFFF), so the problem will not
be visible unless you use a 64 bit tool chain for development. On
some boards however, changes to the code size (due to different
optimizations) we bail out with section overlaps like above.
The fix is to add the NOLOAD attribute to the .bss and .sbss
sections, telling the linker that .bss does not consume any space in
the image.

This patch also adds a note to the fixed DDR setup for Bamboo NAND booting:
Note:
As found out by Eugene O'Brien <eugene.obrien@advantechamt.com>, the fixed
DDR setup has problems (U-Boot crashes randomly upon TFTP), when the DIMM
modules are still plugged in. So it is recommended to remove the DIMM
modules while using the NAND booting code with the fixed SDRAM setup!

Changed storage type of cfg_simulate_spd_eeprom to const
Changed storage type of gpio_tab to stack storage
(Cannot access global data declarations in .bss until afer code relocation)
Improved SDRAM tests to catch problems where data is not uniquely addressable
(e.g. incorrectly programmed SDRAM row or columns)
Added CONFIG_PROG_SDRAM_TLB to support Bamboo SIMM/DIMM modules
Fixed AM29LV320DT (OpCode Flash) sector map

This patch removes the CFG_PCI_PRE_INIT option completely, since
it's not needed anymore with the patch from Matthias Fuchs with
the "weak" pci_pre_init() implementation.

This patch updates the "normal" Bamboo NOR booting port, so
that it is compatible with the coming soon NAND booting
Bamboo port.
It also enables the 2nd NAND flash on the Bamboo.

This patch adds some 4xx GPIO functions. It also moves some of the
common code and defines into a common 4xx GPIO header file.

Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and
support two use cases:
1) Add O= to the make command line
'make O=/tmp/build all'
2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'make'
The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'./MAKEALL'
Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable.
When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and
the object files are placed in the source directory.
code and in SoC code). Boards using the old way have CFG_NAND_LEGACY and
BOARDLIBS = drivers/nand_legacy/libnand_legacy.a added. Build breakage for
NETTA.ERR and NETTA_ISDN - will go away when the new NAND support is
implemented for these boards.
On PPC44x platforms, the startup message generated in "cpu.c" only
comprised the ppc type and revision but not additional informations
like speed etc. Those speed infos where printed in the board specific
code. This new implementation now prints all CPU infos in the common
cpu specific code. No board specific code is needed anymore and
therefore removed from all current 44x implementations.
