06c14117c4 powerpc: convert makefiles to Kbuild style
Note:
arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc8260/Makefile is originally like follows:

    ---<snip>---
    START   = start.o kgdb.o
    COBJS   = traps.o serial_smc.o serial_scc.o cpu.o cpu_init.o speed.o \
    ---<snip>---
    COBJS-$(CONFIG_ETHER_ON_SCC) = ether_scc.o
    ---<snip>---
    $(LIB): $(OBJS)
            $(call cmd_link_o_target, $(OBJS) $(obj)kgdb.o)

The link rule `$(call cmd_link_o_target, $(OBJS) $(obj)kgdb.o)'
is weird.
kbdg.o is not included in $(OBJS) but linked into $(LIB)
and $(LIB) is not dependent on kgdb.o.
(Broken dependency tracking)

So,
    START   = start.o kgdb.o
shoud have been
    START   = start.o
    SOBJS   = kgdb.o

That is why this commit adds kgdb.o to obj-y, not to extra-y.

cca4e4aec1 Reduce build times
U-Boot Makefiles contain a number of tests for compiler features etc.
which so far are executed again and again.  On some architectures
(especially ARM) this results in a large number of calls to gcc.

This patch makes sure to run such tests only once, thus largely
reducing the number of "execve" system calls.

Example: number of "execve" system calls for building the "P2020DS"
(Power Architecture) and "qong" (ARM) boards, measured as:
	-> strace -f -e trace=execve -o /tmp/foo ./MAKEALL <board>
	-> grep execve /tmp/foo | wc -l

	Before: After:	Reduction:
==================================
P2020DS 20555	15205	-26%
qong	31692	14490	-54%

As a result, built times are significantly reduced, typically by
30...50%.

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.

a47a12becf Move arch/ppc to arch/powerpc
As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.

Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.
