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 moves some common 4xx macros and the PPC405_SYS_INFO/
PPC440_SYS_INFO structure into the common ppc4xx.h header.
Lot's of other macros are good candidates to be consolidated this way
in the future.

platforms wishing to display RAM diagnostics in addition to size,
can do so, on one line, in their own board_add_ram_info()
implementation.
this consequently eliminates CONFIG_ADD_RAM_INFO.
Thanks to Stefan for the hint.

Minor cleanups to confirm to the u-boot coding style.
Some german expressions -> english.

Make ecc initialisation robust, as DDR2-ECC errors may be generated
while zeroing the RAM.
Return 16 bytes (a cacheline) less than the available memory, as the
board and/or PPC440EPx might have problems accessing the last bytes.
