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.

* Patch by Josef Wagner, 18 Mar 2004:
- Add support for MicroSys XM250 board (PXA255)
- Add support for MicroSys PM828 board (MPC8280)
- Add support for 32 MB Flash on PM825/826
- new SDRAM refresh rate for PM825/PM826
- added support for MicroSys PM520 (MPC5200)
- replaced Query by Identify command in CPU86/flash.c
to support 28F160F3B
* Fix wrap around problem with udelay() on ARM920T
* Add support for Macronix flash on TRAB board
ARM memory layout fixes: the abort-stack is now set up in the
correct RAM area, and the BSS is zeroed out as it should be.
Furthermore, the magic variables 'armboot_end' and 'armboot_end_data'
of the linker scripts are replaced by '__bss_start' and '_end',
resp., which is a further step to eliminate unnecessary differences
between the implementation of the CPU architectures.
- remove trailing white space, trailing empty lines, C++ comments, etc.
- split cmd_boot.c (separate cmd_bdinfo.c and cmd_load.c)
