Recent compiler generates unaligned memory access in armv7 default.
But current U-Boot does not allow unaligned memory access, so it causes
data abort exception.
This patch add compile option "-mno-unaligned-access" if it is available.

Enable -march=armv7-a for armv7 platforms if the tool-chain
supports it. This in turn results in Thumb-2 code generated
for these platforms if CONFIG_SYS_THUMB_BUILD is enabled.

Freescale SOCs require an header to u-boot.bin
The patch adds u-boot.imx to the default targets
if the imx file is set (IMX_CONFIG).

U-Boot Makefiles contain a number of tests for compiler features etc.
which so far are executed again and again. On some architectures
(especially ARM) this results in a large number of calls to gcc.
This patch makes sure to run such tests only once, thus largely
reducing the number of "execve" system calls.
Example: number of "execve" system calls for building the "P2020DS"
(Power Architecture) and "qong" (ARM) boards, measured as:
-> strace -f -e trace=execve -o /tmp/foo ./MAKEALL <board>
-> grep execve /tmp/foo | wc -l
Before: After: Reduction:
==================================
P2020DS 20555 15205 -26%
qong 31692 14490 -54%
As a result, built times are significantly reduced, typically by
30...50%.

The purpose of this patch is to prepare for adding the OMAP4 architecture, which is Cortex A9
Cortex A8 and A9 both belong to the armv7 architecture, hence the name change.
The two architectures are similar enough that substantial code can be shared.
