Several boards used different ways to specify the size of the
protected area when enabling flash write protection for the sectors
holding the environment variables: some used CONFIG_ENV_SIZE and
CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND, some used CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE, and some even
a mix of both for the "normal" and the "redundant" areas.
Normally, this makes no difference at all. However, things are
different when you have to deal with boards that can come with
different types of flash chips, which may have different sector
sizes.
Here we may have to chose CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE such that it fits the
biggest sector size, which may include several sectors on boards using
the smaller sector flash types. In such a case, using CONFIG_ENV_SIZE
or CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND to enable the protection may lead to the
case that only the first of these sectors get protected, while the
following ones aren't.
This is no real problem, but it can be confusing for the user -
especially on boards that use CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE to protect the
"normal" areas, while using CONFIG_ENV_SIZE_REDUND for the
"redundant" area.
To avoid such inconsistencies, I changed all sucn boards that I found
to consistently use CONFIG_ENV_SECT_SIZE for protection. This should
not cause any functional changes to the code.

add FAT support for IDE, SCSI and USB
* Patches by Gleb Natapov, 2 Sep 2003:
- cleanup of POST code for unsupported architectures
- MPC824x locks way0 of data cache for use as initial RAM;
this patch unlocks it after relocation to RAM and invalidates
the locked entries.
* Patch by Gleb Natapov, 30 Aug 2003:
new I2C driver for mpc107 bridge. Now works from flash.
* Patch by Dave Ellis, 11 Aug 2003:
- JFFS2: fix typo in common/cmd_jffs2.c
- JFFS2: fix CFG_JFFS2_SORT_FRAGMENTS option
- JFFS2: remove node version 0 warning
- JFFS2: accept JFFS2 PADDING nodes
- SXNI855T: add AM29LV800 support
- SXNI855T: move environment from EEPROM to flash
- SXNI855T: boot from JFFS2 in NOR or NAND flash
* Patch by Bill Hargen, 11 Aug 2003:
fixes for I2C on MPC8240
- fix i2c_write routine
- fix iprobe command
- eliminates use of global variables, plus dead code, cleanup.
- remove trailing white space, trailing empty lines, C++ comments, etc.
- split cmd_boot.c (separate cmd_bdinfo.c and cmd_load.c)
* Patches by Kenneth Johansson, 25 Jun 2003:
- major rework of command structure
(work done mostly by Michal Cendrowski and Joakim Kristiansen)
instead CFG_MONITOR_LEN is now only used to determine _at_compile_
_time_ (!) if the environment is embedded within the U-Boot image,
or in a separate flash sector.
* Cleanup CFG_DER #defines in config files (wd maintained only)
