Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".
This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.
The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.
This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.

By now, the majority of architectures have working relocation
support, so the few remaining architectures have become exceptions.
To make this more obvious, we make working relocation now the default
case, and flag the remaining cases with CONFIG_NEEDS_MANUAL_RELOC.

Prototype for gunzip/zunzip was only in lib_generic/gunzip.c and thus
repeated in every file using it. This patch moves the prototypes to
common.h and removes all prototypes distributed anywhere else.

There is more and more usage of printing 64bit values,
so enable this feature generally, and delete the
CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_VSPRINTF and CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_STRTOUL
defines.

Add #ifdefs where necessary to not perform relocation fixups. This
allows boards/architectures which support relocation to trim a decent
chunk of code.
Note that this patch doesn't add #ifdefs to architecture-specific code
which does not support relocation.

Files in directories which are symlinked to were not dereferenced
correctly in last commit. E.g., with a symlink
/boot/lnk -> /boot/real_dir
loading
/boot/lnk/uImage
will fail. This patch fixes that by simply seeing to it that the target
base directory has a slash after it.

This patch adds support for resolving symlinks to directories as well as
relative symlinks. Symlinks are now always resolved during file lookup,
so the load stage no longer needs to special-case them.

__set_bit and __clear_bit are defined in ubifs.h as well as in
asm/include/bitops.h for some architectures. This patch moves
the generic implementation to include/linux/bitops.h and uses
that unless it's defined by the architecture.

I missed removing this file while implementing the UBIFS support. It's
not referenced at all, so let's remove it. Thanks to Artem Bityutskiy

UBIFS did not recovery in a situation in which it could
have. The relevant function assumed there could not be
more nodes in an eraseblock after a corrupted node, but
in fact the last (NAND) page written might contain anything.
The correct approach is to check for empty space (0xFF bytes)
from then on.

Now UBIFS is supported by u-boot. If we ever decide to change the
media format, then people will have to upgrade their u-boots to
mount new format images. However, very often it is possible to
preserve R/O forward-compatibility, even though the write
forward-compatibility is not preserved.
This patch introduces a new super-block field which stores the
R/O compatibility version.

On systems where U-Boot is linked to another address than it really lays
(e.g. backup image), calls via function pointers must be fixed with a
'+= gd->reloc_off'.
This was not done for none_compr in ubifs_compressors_init() what leads
to system crash on ubifsmount command.

The U-Boot UBIFS implementation is largely a direct copy from the current
Linux version (2.6.29-rc6). As already done in the UBI version we have an
"abstraction layer" to redefine or remove some OS calls (e.g. mutex_lock()
...). This makes it possible to use the original Linux code with very
little changes. And by this we can better update to later Linux versions.
I removed some of the Linux features that are not used in the U-Boot
version (e.g. garbage-collection, write support).
