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.

Change all linker scripts to reference the changed driver name 4xx_uart.o.
Note: In most cased all these explicit referencing of these object files
in the linker scripts is not neccessary. Only for manually embedded
environment into the U-Boot image, which is not done is most cases.

The BCSR status bit for the 66MHz PCI operation was correctly
addressed (MSB/LSB problem). Now the correct currently setup
PCI frequency is displayed upon bootup.
This patch also fixes this problem on Rainier & Yellowstone, since these
boards use the same souce code as Sequoia & Yosemite do.

This patch removes the CFG_PCI_PRE_INIT option completely, since
it's not needed anymore with the patch from Matthias Fuchs with
the "weak" pci_pre_init() implementation.

Now the AMCC eval boards Yosemite (440EP) and Yellowstone (440GR)
share one config file and all board specific files. This way we
don't have to maintain two different sets of files for nearly
identical boards.

Now the board revision and the current PCI bus speed are printed after
the board message.
Also the EBC initialising is now done via defines in the board config
file.

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.
AMCC suggested to set the PMU bit to 0 for best performace on
the PPC440 DDR controller.
Please see doc/README.440-DDR-performance for details.

- Changed GPIO setup to enable another address line in order to
address 64M of FLASH.
- Added function sdram_tr1_set to auto calculate the tr1 value for
the DDR.

On PPC44x platforms, the startup message generated in "cpu.c" only
comprised the ppc type and revision but not additional informations
like speed etc. Those speed infos where printed in the board specific
code. This new implementation now prints all CPU infos in the common
cpu specific code. No board specific code is needed anymore and
therefore removed from all current 44x implementations.
