all arm boards except a few use the same cpu linker script
so move it to cpu/$(CPU)
that could be overwrite in following order

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.

Most of the bss initialization loop increments 4 bytes
at a time. And the loop end is checked for an 'equal'
condition. Make the bss end address aligned by 4, so
that the loop will end as expected.

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.

The pxa255_idp being an old unmaintained board showed several issues:
1. CONFIG_INIT_CRITICAL was still defined.
2. Neither CONFIG_MAC_PARTITION nor CONFIG_DOS_PARTITION was defined.
3. Symbol flash_addr was undeclared.
4. The boards lowlevel_init function was still called memsetup.
5. The TEXT_BASE was still 0xa3000000 rather than 0xa3080000.
6. Using -march=armv5 instead of -march=armv5te resulted in lots of
'target CPU does not support interworking' warnings on recent compilers.
7. The PXA's serial driver redefined FFUART, BTUART and STUART used as
indexes rather than the register definitions from the pxa-regs header
file. Renamed them to FFUART_INDEX, BTUART_INDEX and STUART_INDEX to
avoid any ambiguities.
8. There were several redefinition warnings concerning ICMR, OSMR3,
OSCR, OWER, OIER, RCSR and CCCR in the PXA's assembly start file.
9. The board configuration file was rather outdated.
10. The part header file defined the vendor, product and revision arrays
as unsigned chars instead of just chars in the block_dev_desc_t
structure.

- update the pxa-regs.h file for PXA27x chips
- add PXA27x based ADSVIX board
- add support for MMC on PXA27x processors
* Patch by Andrew E. Mileski, 28 Nov 2004:
Fix PPC4xx SPD SDRAM detection bug
* Patch by Hiroshi Ito, 26 Nov 2004:
Fix logic of "test -z" and "test -n" commands
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)
* Patches by Kenneth Johansson, 25 Jun 2003:
- major rework of command structure
(work done mostly by Michal Cendrowski and Joakim Kristiansen)
- fix bug in BOOTP code (must use NetCopyIP)
- update of CSB226 port
- clear BSS segment on XScale
- added support for i2c_init_board() function
- update to the Innokom plattform
* Extend support for redundand environments for configurations where
environment size < sector size
