Refactor linker-generated array code so that symbols
which were previously linker-generated are now compiler-
generated. This causes relocation records of type
R_ARM_ABS32 to become R_ARM_RELATIVE, which makes
code which uses LGA able to run before relocation as
well as after.
Note: this affects more than ARM targets, as linker-
lists span possibly all target architectures, notably
PowerPC.

Add an ASSERT() to u-boot.lds to detect an SPL that doesn't fit within
SPL_TEXT_BASE..SPL_MAX_SIZE.
Different .lds files implement this check in two possible ways:
1) An ASSERT() like this
2) Defining a MEMORY region of size SPL_MAX_SIZE, and re-directing all
linker output into that region. Since u-boot.lds is used for both
SPL and main U-Boot, this would entail only sometimes defining a
MEMORY region, and only sometimes performing that redirection, and
hence option (1) was deemed much simpler, and hence implemented.
Note that this causes build failures at least for NVIDIA Tegra Seaboard
and Ventana. However, these are legitimate; the SPL doesn't fit within
the required space, and this does cause runtime issues.

Most ARM CPUs use a very similar link script. This adds a basic
script that can be used by most CPUs.
Two new symbols are introduced which are intended to eventually be
defined on all architectures to make things easier for generic relocation
and reduce special-case code for each architecture:
__image_copy_start is the start of the text area (equivalent to the
existing _start on ARM). It marks the start of the region which must be
copied to a new location during relocation. This symbol is called
__text_start on x86 and microblaze.
__image_copy_end is the end of the region which must be copied to a new
location during relocation. It is normally equal to the start of the BSS
region, but this can vary in some cases (SPL?). Making this an explicit
symbol on its own removes any ambiguity and permits common code to always
do the right thing.
This new script makes use of CPUDIR, now defined by both Makefile and
spl/Makefile, to find the directory containing the start.o object file,
which is always placed first in the image.
To permit MMU setup prior to relocation (as used by pxa) we add an area
to the link script which contains space for this. This is taken
from commit 7f4cfcf. CPUs can put the contents in there using their
start.S file. BTW, shouldn't that area be 16KB-aligned?

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.

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.
