436da3cd23 ext2load: increase read speed
This patch dramatically drops the amount of time u-boot needs to read a
file from an ext2 partition.  On a typical 2 to 5 MB file (kernels and
initrds) it goes from tens of seconds to a couple seconds.

All we are doing here is grouping contiguous blocks into one read.

Boot tested on Globalscale Technologies Dreamplug (Kirkwood ARM SoC)
with three different files.  sha1sums were calculated in Linux
userspace, and then confirmed after ext2load.

26784f1ecb ext2: Cache line align indirection buffers
Make ext2 use cache line aligned buffers for reading from the filesystem.
This is needed when caches are enabled because unaligned cache invalidates
are not safe.

4c1cd721d8 ext2: Cache line aligned partial sector bounce buffer
Currently, if a device read request is done that does not begin or end
on a sector boundary a stack allocated bounce buffer is used to perform
the read, and then just the part of the sector that is needed is copied
into the users buffer.  This stack allocation can mean that the bounce
buffer will not be aligned to the dcache line size.  This is a problem
when caches are enabled because unaligned cache invalidates are not
safe.

This patch uses ALLOC_CACHE_ALIGN_BUFFER to create a stack allocated
cache line size aligned bounce buffer.

d961c188b2 ext2: Simplify partial sector access logic
Previously reading or writing zero full sectors (reading the end of
one sector and the beginning of the next for example) was special
cased and involved stack allocating a second sector buffer.  This
change uses the same code path for this case as well as when there
are a non-zero number of full sectors to access.  The result is
easier to read and reduces the maximum stack used.

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.

a2740dd00d ext2fs: Fix optimization bug for doubly-indirect block pointers
Doubly-indirect block numbers are compared against the first-level
indirect block when checking for a cached copy.  This is causing the
doubly-indirect block to be re-read each time it is accessed.
Repairing this reduces load time for a 70M file from 72 seconds
to 38 seconds.

270737acca EXT2FS: fix inode size for ext2fs rev#0
extfs.c assumes that there is always a valid inode_size field in the
superblock. But this is not true for ext2fs rev 0. Such ext2fs images
are for instance generated by genext2fs. Symptoms on ARM machines are
messages like: "raise: Signal # 8 caught"; on PowerPC "ext2ls" will
print nothing.
This fix checks for rev 0 and uses then 128 bytes as inode size.

f40a7f3e38 fs/: Remove lingering references to CFG_CMD_* symbols.
Fixed some broken instances of "#ifdef CMD_CFG_IDE" too.
Those always evaluated TRUE, and thus were always compiled
even when IDE really wasn't defined/wanted.

4e109ae982 fs/: Augment CONFIG_COMMANDS tests with defined(CONFIG_CMD_*).
This is a compatibility step that allows both the older form
and the new form to co-exist for a while until the older can
be removed entirely.

All transformations are of the form:
Before:
    #if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)
After:
    #if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)

f93286397e Add support for a saving build objects in a separate directory.
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.
