Note this is a tree-wide change affecting multiple architectures.
At present we use __bss_start, but mostly __bss_end__. This seems
inconsistent and in a number of places __bss_end is used instead.
Change to use __bss_end for the BSS end symbol throughout U-Boot. This
makes it possible to use the asm-generic/sections.h file on all
archs.

This adds arch support for PPC mpc83xx to boot "minimal" (4K) SPLs
using the new infrastructure.
Existing nand_spl targets are updated to deal with the name change
from nand_init.c to spl_minimal.c (as in theory this isn't limited
to NAND anymore).

Commit 6dc1ece "Introduce a new linker flag LDFLAGS_FINAL" modified a

problem was that $(nandobj) was used before it got defined.

Currently, _end is used for end of BSS section. We want _end to mean

commit 8aba9dceeb
Divides variable of linker flags to LDFLAGS-u-boot and LDFLAGS
breaks the usage of --gc-section to build nand_spl. We still need linker option
--gc-section for every uboot image, not only the main one. LDFLAGS_FINAL passes
the --gc-sections to each uboot image.
To get the proper linker flags, we use LDFLAGS and LDFLAGS_FINAL to replace
PLATFORM_LDFLAGS in the Makefile of each nand_spl board.

Recent GCC (4.4+) performs out-of-line epilogues in some cases, when
optimizing for size. It causes a link error for _restgpr_30_x (and similar)
if libgcc is not linked.
It actually increases size with very small binaries, due to the fixed size
of the out-of-line code, and not having any functions that actually need to
restore more than 2 or 3 registers. But I don't see a way to turn it off,
other than asking GCC to optimize for speed -- which may also increase
size for some boards.

Apply the same fix for 83xx as was done for 85xx in commit
96196a1f75.
Without this, NAND SPLs are built with the text base intended for the main
image, resulting in a broken, very large u-boot-nand.bin.
The block of defines for NAND boot is moved closer to where
CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE is defined. We can't directly use
CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST in the definition of CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE because
autoconf.mk will include the literal text "CONFIG_SYS_NAND_U_BOOT_DST",
but at least keep them close and point out that they're supposed to be
the same.

The change is currently needed to be able to remove the board
configuration scripting from the top level Makefile and replace it by
a simple, table driven script.
Moving this configuration setting into the "CONFIG_*" name space is
also desirable because it is needed if we ever should move forward to
a Kconfig driven configuration system.

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.
Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.

Commit f62fb99941 fixed handling of all rodata sections by using a
wildcard combined with calls to ld's builtin functions SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT()
and SORT_BY_NAME(). Unfortunately these functions were only
introduced with biunutils version 2.16, so the modification broke
building with all tool chains using older binutils.
This patch makes it work again. This is done by omitting the use of
these functions for such old tool chains. This will result in
slightly larger target binaries, as the rodata sections are no longer
in optimal order alignment-wise which reauls in unused gaps, but the
effect was found to be insignificant - especially compared to the fact
that you cannot build U-Boot at all in the current state.
As ld seems to have no support for conditionals we run the linker
script through the C preprocessor which can be easily used to remove
the unwanted function calls.
Note that the C preprocessor must be run with the "-ansi" (or a
"-std=") option to make sure all the system-specific predefined
macros outside the reserved namespace are suppressed. Otherise, cpp
might for example substitute "powerpc" to "1", thus corrupting for
example "OUTPUT_ARCH(powerpc)" etc.

A recent gcc added a new unaligned rodata section called '.rodata.str1.1',
which needs to be added the the linker script. Instead of just adding this
one section, we use a wildcard ".rodata*" to get all rodata linker section
gcc has now and might add in the future.
However, '*(.rodata*)' by itself will result in sub-optimal section
ordering. The sections will be sorted by object file, which causes extra
padding between the unaligned rodata.str.1.1 of one object file and the
aligned rodata of the next object file. This is easy to fix by using the
SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT command.
This patch has not be tested one most of the boards modified. Some boards
have a linker script that looks something like this:
*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.rodata)
*(.rodata.str1.4)
*(.eh_frame)
I change this to:
*(.text)
. = ALIGN(16);
*(.eh_frame)
*(SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT(SORT_BY_NAME(.rodata*)))
This means the start of rodata will no longer be 16 bytes aligned.
However, the boundary between text and rodata/eh_frame is still aligned to
16 bytes, which is what I think the real purpose of the ALIGN call is.

This patch will create a new board, SIMPC8313, from Sheldon Instruments. This
board boots from NAND devices and is configureable for either large or small
page devices. The board supports non-soldered DDR2, one ethernet port, a
Marvell 88E1118 PHY, and PCI host support. The board also has a FPGA connected
to the eLBC providing glue logic to a TMS320C67xx DSP.
