858290178f ppc: Enable full relocation to RAM
The following changes allow U-Boot to fully relocate from flash to
RAM:
 - Remove linker scripts' .fixup sections from the .text section
 - Add -mrelocatable to PLATFORM_RELFLAGS for all boards
 - Define CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS for all boards

Previously, U-Boot would partially relocate, but statically initialized
pointers needed to be manually relocated.

f62fb99941 Fix all linker script to handle all rodata sections
A recent gcc added a new unaligned rodata section called '.rodata.str1.1',
which needs to be added the the linker script.  Instead of just adding this
one section, we use a wildcard ".rodata*" to get all rodata linker section
gcc has now and might add in the future.

However, '*(.rodata*)' by itself will result in sub-optimal section
ordering.  The sections will be sorted by object file, which causes extra
padding between the unaligned rodata.str.1.1 of one object file and the
aligned rodata of the next object file.  This is easy to fix by using the
SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT command.

This patch has not be tested one most of the boards modified.  Some boards
have a linker script that looks something like this:

*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.rodata)
*(.rodata.str1.4)
*(.eh_frame)

I change this to:

*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.eh_frame)
*(SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT(SORT_BY_NAME(.rodata*)))

This means the start of rodata will no longer be 16 bytes aligned.
However, the boundary between text and rodata/eh_frame is still aligned to
16 bytes, which is what I think the real purpose of the ALIGN call is.

1f4d53260e ppc4xx: Generic architecture for xilinx ppc405(v3)
As "ppc44x: Unification of virtex5 pp440 boards" did for the xilinx
ppc440 boards, this patch presents a common architecture for all the
xilinx ppc405 boards.

Any custom xilinx ppc405 board can be added very easily with no code
duplicity.

This patch also adds a simple generic board, that can be used on almost
any design with xilinx ppc405 replacing the file ppc405-generic/xparameters.h

This patch is prepared to work with the latest version of EDK (10.1)
