Currently, _end is used for end of BSS section. We want _end to mean
end of u-boot image, so we rename _end to __bss_end__ first.

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.

Use the MMU hardware to set up 1:1 mappings between physical and virtual
addresses. This allows us to bypass the cache when accessing the flash
without having to do any physical-to-virtual address mapping in the CFI
driver.
The virtual memory mappings are defined at compile time through a sorted
array of virtual memory range objects. When a TLB miss exception
happens, the exception handler does a binary search through the array
until it finds a matching entry and loads it into the TLB. The u-boot
image itself is covered by a fixed TLB entry which is never replaced.
This makes the 'saveenv' command work again on ATNGW100 and other boards
using the CFI driver, hopefully without breaking any rules.

Due to a hardware bug mentioned in latest AP7000 datasheet errata
(revision M from 09.09) branch folding is unreliable.
This patch disables CPUCR.FE bitfield as stated in datasheet.

Since the reset vector is always aligned to a very large boundary, we
can save a couple of KB worth of alignment padding by placing the
exception vectors at the same address.
Deciding which one it is is easy: If we're handling an exception, the
CPU is in Exception mode. If we're starting up after reset, the CPU is
in Supervisor mode. So this adds a very minimal overhead to the reset
path (only executed once) and the exception handling path (normally
never executed at all.)

Relocate the u-boot image into SDRAM like everyone else does. This
means that we can handle much larger .data and .bss than we used to.

Split the avr32 initialization code into a function to run before
relocation, board_init_f and a function to run after relocation,
board_init_r. For now, board_init_f simply calls board_init_r
at the end.

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:
