79e6313936 ARM: use the same branch insn on all architectures
For the "fixloop" implementation in start.S a number of different
instructions was used.  Unify code so all architectures use "blo"
here because it is more robust in case of incorrect alignments.

25ddd1fb0a Replace CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE by auto-generated value
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.

14d0a02a16 Rename TEXT_BASE into CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE
The change is currently needed to be able to remove the board
configuration scripting from the top level Makefile and replace it by
a simple, table driven script.

Moving this configuration setting into the "CONFIG_*" name space is
also desirable because it is needed if we ever should move forward to
a Kconfig driven configuration system.

da90d4ce38 arm: bugfix: replace ble with blo in start.S files
Generalized misuse of ble within relocation and bss
initialization loops caused one iteration too many.
Instead of ble ('branch if lower or equal'), use
blo ('branch if lower').

While we're at it, fix all 'addreee' typos.

abef7b859d ARM: implement relocation for arm720t
Change the implementation for arm720t to relocate the code to
an arbitrary address in RAM.

Portions of this work were supported by funding from
the CE Linux Forum.

1a27f7d9c2 ARM: Align stack to 8 bytes
The ARM ABI requires that the stack be aligned to 8 bytes as it is noted
in Procedure Call Standard for the ARM Architecture:
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ihi0042d/index.html

Unaligned SP also causes the problem with variable-length arrays
allocation when VLA address becomes less than stack pointer during
aligning of this address, so the next 'push' in the stack overwrites
first 4 bytes of VLA.
