Currently, some linker scripts are found by common code in config.mk.
Some are found using CONFIG_SYS_LDSCRIPT, but the code for that is
sometimes in arch config.mk and sometimes in board config.mk. Some
are found using an arch-specific rule for looking in CPUDIR, etc.
Further, the powerpc config.mk rule relied on CONFIG_NAND_SPL
when it really wanted CONFIG_NAND_U_BOOT -- which covered up the fact
that not all NAND_U_BOOT builds actually wanted CPUDIR/u-boot-nand.lds.
Replace all of this -- except for a handful of boards that are actually
selecting a linker script in a unique way -- with centralized ldscript
finding.
If board code specifies LDSCRIPT, that will be used.
Otherwise, if CONFIG_SYS_LDSCRIPT is specified, that will be used.
If neither of these are specified, then the central config.mk will
check for the existence of the following, in order:
$(TOPDIR)/board/$(BOARDDIR)/u-boot-nand.lds (only if CONFIG_NAND_U_BOOT)
$(TOPDIR)/$(CPUDIR)/u-boot-nand.lds (only if CONFIG_NAND_U_BOOT)
$(TOPDIR)/board/$(BOARDDIR)/u-boot.lds
$(TOPDIR)/$(CPUDIR)/u-boot.lds
Some boards (sc3, cm5200, munices) provided their own u-boot.lds that
were dead code, because they were overridden by a CPUDIR u-boot.lds under
the old powerpc rules. These boards' own u-boot.lds have bitrotted and
no longer work -- these lds files have been removed.

Rename STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR into CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR
and allow that the architecture-specific default value gets
overwritten by defining the value in the board header file.

-msingle-pic-base is a new gcc option for ppc and
it reduces the size of my u-boot with 6-8 KB.
While at it, add -fno-jump-tables too to save a
few more bytes.
-msingle-pic-base will be in gcc 4.6, however

The -fPIC flag belongs with -mrelocatable, move it there.
Also change -fPIC to -fpic as this produces smaller
binaries.
However, currently -mrelocatable promotes -fpic to -fPIC, a
fix for this is in upcoming gcc 4.6 or you can apply this small
patch to gcc:

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.

Linker needs to use the proper endian/bfd flags even when doing partial linking.
LDFLAGS_u-boot sets linker option which is called it when U-boot is built
(u-boot final).
LDFLAGS sets necessary option by partial linking (use in cmd_link_o_target).

The switch from archive libraries to partial linking has introduced a
number of problems, that are non-trivial to solve. For example, it is
no longer possible to include individual object files in the linker
script as we did before for example in the case of boards with
embedded environment to fill up the gap caused by the need to align
the environment on flash erase block boundaries.
The best (but unfortunately not easiest) approach to address this
problem is to enable -ffunction-sections (and -fdata-sections) so
we can again (and even in much finer granularity) place certain code
where we want it. When doing this step, it seems only consequent to
also add --gc-sections which has the added benefit of reducing the
memory footprint of the U-Boot image (both in flash and in RAM).
Unfortunately, this requires changes to a lot of linker scripts.

As we try to get rid of board specific config.mk files we must
provide a way for board specific settings of the LDSCRIPT variable
(path to the linker script) where needed.
We now implement the following hierarchy:
- Highest priority has a "#define CONFIG_SYS_LDCONFIG" in the board
config file.
- If CONFIG_SYS_LDCONFIG is not set, and the system is booting from
NAND (CONFIG_NAND_SPL is set), then a board specific linker
script board/$(BOARDDIR)/u-boot-nand.lds gets used.
- If we are not booting from NAND, we test if a processor specific
linker script arch/powerpc/cpu/$(CPU)/u-boot.lds exists; if so we
use that.
- As default, arch/powerpc/config.mk gets used.

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.

Rather than maintain/extend the current ifeq($(ARCH)) mess that exists in
the standalone Makefile, push the setting up of LOAD_ADDR out to the arch
config.mk (and rename to STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR in the process). This keeps
the common code clean and lets the arch do whatever crazy crap it wants in
its own area.

The following changes allow U-Boot to fully relocate from flash to
RAM:
- Remove linker scripts' .fixup sections from the .text section
- Add -mrelocatable to PLATFORM_RELFLAGS for all boards
- Define CONFIG_RELOC_FIXUP_WORKS for all boards
Previously, U-Boot would partially relocate, but statically initialized
pointers needed to be manually relocated.

Each arch should handle setting a proper default CROSS_COMPILE value in
their own config.mk file rather than having to maintain a large ugly list
in the Makefile. By using conditional assignment, we don't have to worry
about the variable already being set (env/cmdline/etc...).
The common config.mk file takes care of exporting CROSS_COMPILE already,
and while a few variables (toolchain ones) utilize CROSS_COMPILE before
including the arch config.mk, they do so with deferred assignment.
