This patch allows an arch/ppc kernel to be booted by just passing 1 or 2
arguments to bootm. It removes the getenv("disable_of") test that used
to be used for this purpose.

Make sure the string passed as variable name does not contain a '='
character. This not only prevents the common error or typing
"setenv foo=bar" instead of "setenv foo bar", but (more importantly)
also closes a backdoor which allowed to delete write-protected
environment variables, for example by using "setenv ethaddr=".
If a Multi-Image file contains a third image we try to use it as a
device tree. The device tree image is assumed to be uncompressed in the
image file. We automatically allocate space for the device tree in memory
and provide an 8k pad to allow more than a reasonable amount of growth.
Additionally, a device tree that was contained in flash will now automatically
get copied to system memory as part of boot. Previously an error was
reported if one tried to boot a device tree that was in flash.

When CONFIG_OF_FLAG_TREE is set, the compiler complains that 'len' in
do_bootm_linux() may be uninitialized. There is no possibility in the
current code that len will get used uninitialized, but this fix follows
the existing convention of setting both len and data to zero at the same
time.

Patch by Guido Classen, 10 Oct 2006
- Add support for PPC440EPx & PPC440GRx
- Add support for PPC440EP(x)/GR(x) NAND controller
in cpu/ppc4xx directory
- Add NAND boot functionality for Sequoia board,
please see doc/README.nand-boot-ppc440 for details
- This Sequoia NAND image doesn't support environment
in NAND for now. This will be added in a short while.
Patch by Stefan Roese, 07 Sep 2006
Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and
support two use cases:
1) Add O= to the make command line
'make O=/tmp/build all'
2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'make'
The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'./MAKEALL'
Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable.
When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and
the object files are placed in the source directory.
