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.
- Add IXP4xx NPE ethernet MAC support
- Add support for Intel IXDPG425 board

[This patch does not include cpu/ixp/npe/IxNpeMicrocode.c which still
sufferes from licensing issues. Blame Intel.]
done so far:
* created zylonite board dir (based on lubbock)
* extended some - but not all pxa sources and headers for Intel
Monahans support (CONFIG_CPU_MONAHANS)
* created Makefile zylonite target + MAKEALL entry
* added some debug nonsense, remove later, grep for mk@tbd
Status: compiles (eldk-4.0), and can be started with BDI, but runs forever
and doesn't halt at breakpoints. Hmmm...
To match the U-Boot user interface on ARM platforms to the U-Boot
standard (as on PPC platforms), some messages with debug character
are removed from the default U-Boot build.
Enable DEBUG for lib_arm/board.c to enable debug messages.
New CONFIG_DISPLAY_CPUINFO and CONFIG_DISPLAY_BOARDINFO options.

- Add support for MII commands on AT91RM9200 boards
- some cleanup in AT91RM9200 ethernet code
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.
