3929fb0a14 Replace __bss_end__ with __bss_end
Note this is a tree-wide change affecting multiple architectures.

At present we use __bss_start, but mostly __bss_end__. This seems
inconsistent and in a number of places __bss_end is used instead.

Change to use __bss_end for the BSS end symbol throughout U-Boot. This
makes it possible to use the asm-generic/sections.h file on all
archs.

3b258e2e58 Fix build issues cause by LDFLAGS_FINAL changes
Commit 6dc1ece "Introduce a new linker flag LDFLAGS_FINAL" modified a
number of Makefiles in a way that broke out-of-tree builds.  The
problem was that $(nandobj) was used before it got defined.

Fix this.

44c6e6591c rename _end to __bss_end__
Currently, _end is used for end of BSS section.  We want _end to mean
end of u-boot image, so we rename _end to __bss_end__ first.

6dc1eceb9c Introduce a new linker flag LDFLAGS_FINAL
commit 8aba9dceeb
Divides variable of linker flags to LDFLAGS-u-boot and LDFLAGS

breaks the usage of --gc-section to build nand_spl. We still need linker option
--gc-section for every uboot image, not only the main one. LDFLAGS_FINAL passes
the --gc-sections to each uboot image.

To get the proper linker flags, we use LDFLAGS and LDFLAGS_FINAL to replace
PLATFORM_LDFLAGS in the Makefile of each nand_spl board.

767589a7b2 powerpc/nand spl: link libgcc
Recent GCC (4.4+) performs out-of-line epilogues in some cases, when
optimizing for size.  It causes a link error for _restgpr_30_x (and similar)
if libgcc is not linked.

It actually increases size with very small binaries, due to the fixed size
of the out-of-line code, and not having any functions that actually need to
restore more than 2 or 3 registers.  But I don't see a way to turn it off,
other than asking GCC to optimize for speed -- which may also increase
size for some boards.

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.

a47a12becf Move arch/ppc to arch/powerpc
As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.

Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.

1aada9cd64 Fix all linker scripts for older binutils versions (pre-2.16)
Commit f62fb99941 fixed handling of all rodata sections by using a
wildcard combined with calls to ld's builtin functions SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT()
and SORT_BY_NAME().  Unfortunately these functions were only
introduced with biunutils version 2.16, so the modification broke
building with all tool chains using older binutils.

This patch makes it work again.  This is done by omitting the use of
these functions for such old tool chains.  This will result in
slightly larger target binaries, as the rodata sections are no longer
in optimal order alignment-wise which reauls in unused gaps, but the
effect was found to be insignificant - especially compared to the fact
that you cannot build U-Boot at all in the current state.

As ld seems to have no support for conditionals we run the linker
script through the C preprocessor which can be easily used to remove
the unwanted function calls.

Note that the C preprocessor must be run with the "-ansi" (or a
"-std=") option to make sure all the system-specific predefined
macros outside the reserved namespace are suppressed. Otherise, cpp
might for example substitute "powerpc" to "1", thus corrupting for
example "OUTPUT_ARCH(powerpc)" etc.

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.

condition. Make the bss end address aligned by 4, so
that the loop will end as expected.

64134f0112 Fix linker scripts: add NOLOAD atribute to .bss/.sbss sections
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.

c440bfe6d6 ppc4xx: Add NAND booting support for AMCC Acadia (405EZ) eval board
This patch adds NAND booting support for the AMCC Acadia eval board.

Please make sure to configure jumper J7 to position 2-3 when booting
from NOR, and to position 1-2 when booting for NAND.

I also added a board command to configure the I2C bootstrap EEPROM
values. Right now only 267MHz is support for booting either via NOR
or NAND FLASH. Here the usage:

=> bootstrap 267 nor	;to configure the board for 267MHz NOR booting
=> bootstrap 267 nand	;to configure the board for 267MHz NNAND booting
