Provide a default linker script for SPL binaries. Start address
and size of text section and BSS section are configurable. All
sections are arranged in a way that only relevant sections are
kept in the code section for maximum size reduction. All other
sections are kept but moved outside the code section to help
with debugging.

SPL binaries are usually linked to a fixed address in SRAM.
Furthermore SPL binaries do not need to relocate itself. Thus
do not build them as position-independent binaries which helps
to largely reduce the size of SPL binaries.

MIPS: always keep all sections in u-boot ELF binary.
Always keep all sections in u-boot ELF binary. Move all unneeded
sections after _end to avoid allocating space in the final binary.
Also remove .deadcode section which is now obsolete.
removed section .deadcode because the original symptoms were not
visible anymore. Unfortuneatly the binutils bug still exists.
The size of .rel.dyn section is often bigger than needed for all
entries. But objcopy only allocates space as much as required for all
reloc entries. Thus there is a gap between the last entry and
__rel_dyn_end in u-boot.bin. If u-boot is booted from RAM (e.g. in
SPL scenarios) that area could contain garbage data which could lead
to CPU exceptions during relocation.

This patch allows MIPS boards to make use of generic board, replacing
arch/mips/lib/board.c with common/board_{f,r}.c and struct bd_info with
the asm-generic version.

The syntax
CROSS_COMIPLE ?= <cross_compiler_prefix>
does not work because config.mk is parsed after
exporting CROSS_COMPILE.
Like Linux Kernel's arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile,
we must write as follows:
ifeq ($(CROSS_COMPILE),)
CROSS_COMPILE := <cross_compiler_prefix>
endif

The code handles relocation entries with the
following relocation types only:
mips32: R_MIPS_REL32
mips64: R_MIPS_REL+R_MIPS_64
xburst: R_MIPS_REL32
Other relocation entries are skipped without
processing. The code must be extended if other
relocation types must be supported.
Add -pie to LDFLAGS_FINAL to generate the .rel.dyn
fixup table, which will be applied to the relocated
image before transferring control to it.
The CONFIG_NEEDS_MANUAL_RELOC is not needed
after the patch, so remove that as well.
