2fbdbda1c7 arm: spear: Move to common SPL infrastructure
The SPL implementation for SPEAr600 is older than the common SPL
infrastructure. This patch now moves the SPEAr600 SPL over to the
common SPL code.

Tested on the only SPEAr board that currently uses SPL in mainline
U-Boot, the x600.

41623c91b0 arm: move exception handling out of start.S files
Exception handling is basically identical for all ARM targets.
Factorize it out of the various start.S files and into a
single vectors.S file, and adjust linker scripts accordingly.

d0b5d9da5d arm: make _end compiler-generated
This prevents references to _end from generating absolute
relocation records.

This change is binary invariant for ARM targets.

47ed5dd031 arm: keep all sections in ELF file
Current LDS files /DISCARD/ a lot of sections when linking ELF
files, causing diagnostic tools such as readelf or objdump to
produce partial output. Keep all section at link stage, filter
only at objcopy time so that .bin remains minimal.

09d81184e1 remove all references to .dynsym
Discard all .dynsym sections from linker scripts
Remove all __dynsym_start definitions from linker scripts
Remove all __dynsym_start references from the codebase

Note: this touches include/asm-generic/sections.h, which
is not ARM-specific, but actual uses of __dynsym_start
are only in ARM, so this patch can safely go through
the ARM repository.

1a9a91dcfa arm: Make all linker scripts compatible with per-symbol sections
Let all ARM linker scripts handle properly -ffunction-sections
and -fdata-sections. This will be useful for future changes in order to create
symbol-specific sections in common .S files.

0ce033d258 Merge branch 'master' of git://git.denx.de/u-boot-arm
Albert's rework of the linker scripts conflicted with Simon's making
everyone use __bss_end.  We also had a minor conflict over
README.scrapyard being added to in mainline and enhanced in
u-boot-arm/master with proper formatting.

Conflicts:

Build tested for all of ARM and run-time tested on am335x_evm.

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.

65cdd6430e Remove linker lists (LGAs) from SPL linker scripts
Many SPL linker scripts needlessly include linker lists (aka LGAs).
Remove them whenever possible; keep it only in the seven am335x_evm
variants (am335x_evm, am335x_evm_uart[1-5], am335x_evm_spiboot),
where there is actual content in output section .u_boot_list.

This commit keeps all u-boot.bin and u-boot-spl.bin in ARM targets
byte-identical.

8b493a5236 common: Discard the __u_boot_cmd section
The command declaration now uses the new LG-array method to generate
list of commands. Thus the __u_boot_cmd section is now superseded and
redundant and therefore can be removed. Also, remove externed symbols
associated with this section from include/command.h .

4ae8bc4392 SPL: ARM: spear: Add SPL support for SPEAr600 platform
This patch adds SPL support for SPEAr600. Currently only SNOR
(Serial NOR) flash support is included. Other boot devices
(NAND, MMC, USB ...) may be added with later patches.

Tested on the STM SPEAr600 evaluation and x600 SPEAr600 boards.
