c44bf4e8ac arm1136: timer: Replace bss variable by gd
Reuse the gd->tbl value for timestamp and add gd->lastinc for lastinc bss
values in the arm1136 timer driver for mx31 and omap24xx

The usage of bss values in drivers before initialisation of bss is forbidden.
In that special case some data in .rel.dyn gets corrupted.

This patch is similiar to the patch Dirk Behme posted
for the armv7/omap-common/timer.c

Tested on the mx31 based qong board

b9bb053159 Add support for MX35 processor
The patch adds basic support for the Freescale's i.MX35
(arm1136 based) processor.

The patch adds also a prototype for the initialization
of the FEC(ethernet controller) to netdev.h to avoid
warnings.

1f52d89f2b arm: fixloop(): do not use r8 for relocation
r8 is used for global_data and should therefore be left alone!

For C code the compiler flag --fixed-r8 does the job, but in assembler
we need to be aware of that fact.

a1a47d3c57 arm: relocate_code(): do not set register useless
In case we are still at relocation target address before relocation we
do not need to load the registers needed for relocation. We should
instead skip the whole relocation part and jump over to clear_bss
immediately.

a78fb68f71 arm: copy_loop(): use scratch register
This patch uses r1 as scratch register for copy_loop(). Therefore we do
not longer need r7 for the storage of relocate_code()'s 'addr_moni' (the
destination address of relocation).
Therefore r7 can be used later on for other purposes.

6d8962e814 Switch from archive libraries to partial linking
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.

e03f316974 Drop support for CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATE_UBOOT
For ARM systems, before ELF relocation was introduced,
CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATE_UBOOT coul be used to prevent *COPYING* the
U-Boot image from whereever it was loaded to it's link address
(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE).  The name was badly chosen, as no relocation
was performed at all, it was just a memcpy().

With ELF relocation, this does not work like that any more, and
related boards need to be fixed anyway.  So don't keep this relict any
longer.

a9aa392629 Drop support for CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC
When this define was introduced, the idea was to provide a soft
migration path for ARM boards to get adapted to the new relocation
support.  However, other recent changes led to a different
implementation (ELF relocation), where this no longer works.  By now
CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC does not only not help any more, but it
actually hurts because it obfuscates the actual code by sprinkling it
with lots of dead and non-working debris.

So let's make a clean cut and drop CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC.

instructions was used.  Unify code so all architectures use "blo"

25ddd1fb0a Replace CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE by auto-generated value
CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE has always been just a bad workarond for not
being able to use "sizeof(struct global_data)" in assembler files.
Recent experience has shown that manual synchronization is not
reliable enough.  This patch renames CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE into
GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE which gets automatically generated by the
asm-offsets tool.  In the result, all definitions of this value can be
deleted from the board config files.  We have to make sure that all
files that reference such data include the new <asm-offsets.h> file.

No other changes have been done yet, but it is obvious that similar
changes / simplifications can be done for other, related macro
definitions as well.

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.

1a27f7d9c2 ARM: Align stack to 8 bytes
The ARM ABI requires that the stack be aligned to 8 bytes as it is noted
in Procedure Call Standard for the ARM Architecture:
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ihi0042d/index.html

Unaligned SP also causes the problem with variable-length arrays
allocation when VLA address becomes less than stack pointer during
aligning of this address, so the next 'push' in the stack overwrites
first 4 bytes of VLA.

409a07c9d7 ARM1136: Fix cache_flush() error and correct cpu_init_crit() comments
The ARM1136 cache_flush() function uses the "mcr p15, 0, rn, c7, c7, 0"
instruction which means "Invalidate Both Caches" when in fact the intent
is to clean and invalidate all caches.  So add an "mcr p15, 0, %0, c7,
c10, 0" instruction to "Clean Entire Data Cache" prior to the "Invalidate
Both Caches" instruction to insure that memory is consistent with any
dirty cache lines.

Also fix a couple of "flush v*" comments in ARM1136 cpu_init_crit() so
that they correctly describe the actual ARM1136 CP15 C7 Cache Operations
used.
