De-hardcode range in RAM we search for the API signature. Instead use the stack
pointer as a hint to narrow down the range in which the signature could reside
(it is malloc'ed on the U-Boot heap, and is hoped to remain in some proximity
from stack area). Adjust PowerPC code in API demo to the new scheme.

This is an API for external (standalone) applications running on top of
U-Boot, and is meant to be more extensible and robust than the existing
jumptable mechanism. It is similar to UNIX syscall approach. See api/README
for more details.
Included is the demo application using this new framework (api_examples).
Please note this is still an experimental feature, and is turned off by
default.

Rewrite the resource management code (i.e. I/O memory, clock gating,
gpio) so it doesn't depend on any global state. This is necessary
because this code is heavily used before relocation to RAM, so we
can't write to any global variables.
As an added bonus, this makes u-boot's memory footprint a bit smaller,
although some functionality has been left out; all clocks are enabled
all the time, and there's no checking for gpio line conflicts.

Patch by Haavard Skinnemoen, 06 Sep 2006
This patch adds support for the AT32AP CPU family and the AT32AP7000
chip, which is the first chip implementing the AVR32 architecture.
The AT32AP CPU core is a high-performance implementation featuring a
7-stage pipeline, separate instruction- and data caches, and a MMU.
For more information, please see the "AVR32 AP Technical Reference":
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32001.pdf
In addition to this, the AT32AP7000 chip comes with a large set of
integrated peripherals, many of which are shared with the AT91 series
of ARM-based microcontrollers from Atmel. Full data sheet is
available here:
