U-Boot names the Raspberry Pi board rpi_b. This means that the common
expression for DTB filename ${soc}-${board}.dtb expands to
bcm2835-rpi_b.dtb. However, the DTB generated by the Linux kernel is
bcm2835-rpi-b.dtb. Set $fdtfile in U-Boot's environment so that scripts
look for the correct DTB filename.
An alternative would be to rename the U-Boot board to rpi-b. However,
that change would be far more invasive, and end up affecting users (i.e
they'd have to change their U-Boot build commands).

Add a DT simple-framebuffer node to DT when booting the Linux kernel.
This will allow the kernel to inherit the framebuffer configuration from
U-Boot, and display a graphical boot console, and even run a full SW-
rendered X server.

Apparently, CONFIG_SYS_HZ must be 1000. Change this, and fix the timer
driver to conform to this.
Have the timer implementation export a custom API get_timer_us() for use
by the BCM2835 MMC API, which needs us resolution for a HW workaround.

Enable the SD controller driver for the Raspberry Pi. Enable a number
of useful MMC, partition, and filesystem-related commands. Set up the
environment to provide standard locations for loading a kernel, DTB,
etc. Provide a boot command that loads and executes boot.scr.uimg from
the SD card; this is written considering future extensibilty to USB
storage.

The firmware running on the bcm2835 SoC's VideoCore CPU manages the
display controller. Add a simple "LCD" driver that communicates with the
firmware using the property mailbox protocol. This configures the
display and frame-buffer to match whatever physical resolution the
firmware chosen when booting, which is typically the native resolution
of the attached display device, presumably unless otherwise specified
in config.txt on the boot media.
Enable this driver in the Raspberry Pi board configuration.

There appears to be no implementation of flush_dcache_range() for
ARM1176, so explicitly disable dcache support to avoid references to
that function from the LCD core in the next patch. This was presumably
not noticed before simply because no drivers for the rpi_b were
attempting DMA.

The Raspberry Pi model B uses the BCM2835 SoC, has 256MB of RAM,
contains an SMSC 9512 USB LAN/Hub chip, and various IO connectors.
