With recent toolchain versions, some boards would not build because
or errors like this one (here for ocotea board when building with
ELDK 4.2 beta):
ppc_4xx-ld: section .bootpg [fffff000 -> fffff23b] overlaps section .bss [fffee900 -> fffff8ab]
For many boards, the .bss section is big enough that it wraps around
at the end of the address space (0xFFFFFFFF), so the problem will not
be visible unless you use a 64 bit tool chain for development. On
some boards however, changes to the code size (due to different
optimizations) we bail out with section overlaps like above.
The fix is to add the NOLOAD attribute to the .bss and .sbss
sections, telling the linker that .bss does not consume any space in
the image.

Although mips_io_port_base is currently a part of IDE command, it is quite
fundamental for MIPS I/O port access such as in[bwl] and out[bwl]. So move
it to MIPS general part, and introduce `set_io_port_base()' from Linux.
This patch is triggered by multiple definition of `mips_io_port_base' build
error on gth2 (and tb0229 also needs this fix.)

Ensure that __got_start points to top of the `.got', and __got_end points
to bottom as well, so that we never fail to count num_got_entries.

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.
* Minor code cleanup (coding style)
* Patch by Reinhard Meyer, 30 Dec 2003:
- cpu/mpc5xxx/fec.c: added CONFIG_PHY_ADDR, added CONFIG_PHY_TYPE,
- added CONFIG_PHY_ADDR to include/configs/IceCube.h,
- turned debug print of PHY registers into a function (called in two places)
- added support for EMK MPC5200 based modules
* Fix MPC8xx PLPRCR_MFD_SHIFT typo
* Add support for TQM866M modules
* Fixes for TQM855M with 4 MB flash (Am29DL163 = _no_ mirror bit flash)
* Fix a few compiler warnings
environment variable which can set to "100", "133", or "150". The
CPU clock will be configured accordingly upon next reboot. Other
values are ignored. In case of an invalid or undefined "cpuclk"
value, the compile-time default CPU clock speed will be used.
* Enable Quad-UART on BMS2003 board (initialize the PCMCIA memory
window that is used to access the UART registers by the Linux driver)
* Patch by Reinhard Meyer, 20 Dec 2003:
Fix clock calculation for the MPC5200 for higher clock frequencies
(above 2**32 / 10 = 429.5 MHz).
- remove trailing white space, trailing empty lines, C++ comments, etc.
- split cmd_boot.c (separate cmd_bdinfo.c and cmd_load.c)
* Patches by Kenneth Johansson, 25 Jun 2003:
- major rework of command structure
(work done mostly by Michal Cendrowski and Joakim Kristiansen)
instead CFG_MONITOR_LEN is now only used to determine _at_compile_
_time_ (!) if the environment is embedded within the U-Boot image,
or in a separate flash sector.
* Cleanup CFG_DER #defines in config files (wd maintained only)
* MPC823 LCD driver: Fill color map backwards, to allow for steady
display when Linux takes over
* Patch by Erwin Rol, 27 Feb 2003:
Add support for RTEMS (this time for real).
* Add support for "bmp info" and "bmp display" commands to load
bitmap images; this can be used (for example in a "preboot"
command) to display a splash screen very quickly after poweron.
* Add support for 133 MHz clock on INCA-IP board
- add threads / scheduler example code
* Add patches by Robert Schwebel, 31 Mar 2003:
- add ctrl-c support for kermit download
- align bdinfo output on ARM
* Add CPU ID, version, and clock speed for INCA-IP
