Before this commit, all arch/arm/cpu/${CPU}/config.mk except ARMv8
had the same option:
$(call cc-option,-mshort-load-bytes,$(call cc-option,-malignment-traps,))
This commit moves it into arch/arm/config.mk.
If the compiler does not support the option,
it is ignored by $(call cc-option,...).
So this commit gives no harm to ARMv8.

If timer_init() is made a weak stub function, then it allows us to

already have a timer initialized when u-boot starts. Architectures
that use the timer framework may also remove the need for timer.c.

Use __image_copy_end instead of __bss_start for the end of the image to
relocate. This is the same as commit 033ca72, but applied to all ARM start.S.
This is a more appropriate symbol naming for an image copy & relocate feature,
and this also saves a useless copy of data put between __image_copy_end and
__bss_start in linker scripts (e.g. relocation information, or MMU
initialization tables used only before jumping to the relocated image).

Move all the C runtime setup code from every start.S

Also, rewrite the C runtime setup and make functions
board_init_*() and relocate_code() behave according to

Some SPL targets had to be touched because they use
start.S explicitly or for some reason; the relevant

U-Boot Makefiles contain a number of tests for compiler features etc.
which so far are executed again and again. On some architectures
(especially ARM) this results in a large number of calls to gcc.
This patch makes sure to run such tests only once, thus largely
reducing the number of "execve" system calls.
Example: number of "execve" system calls for building the "P2020DS"
(Power Architecture) and "qong" (ARM) boards, measured as:
-> strace -f -e trace=execve -o /tmp/foo ./MAKEALL <board>
-> grep execve /tmp/foo | wc -l
Before: After: Reduction:
==================================
P2020DS 20555 15205 -26%
qong 31692 14490 -54%
As a result, built times are significantly reduced, typically by
30...50%.

Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".
This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.
The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.
This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.

For ARM systems, before ELF relocation was introduced,
CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATE_UBOOT coul be used to prevent *COPYING* the
U-Boot image from whereever it was loaded to it's link address
(CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE). The name was badly chosen, as no relocation
was performed at all, it was just a memcpy().
With ELF relocation, this does not work like that any more, and
related boards need to be fixed anyway. So don't keep this relict any
longer.

When this define was introduced, the idea was to provide a soft
migration path for ARM boards to get adapted to the new relocation
support. However, other recent changes led to a different
implementation (ELF relocation), where this no longer works. By now
CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC does not only not help any more, but it
actually hurts because it obfuscates the actual code by sprinkling it
with lots of dead and non-working debris.
So let's make a clean cut and drop CONFIG_SYS_ARM_WITHOUT_RELOC.

CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE has always been just a bad workarond for not
being able to use "sizeof(struct global_data)" in assembler files.
Recent experience has shown that manual synchronization is not
reliable enough. This patch renames CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE into
GENERATED_GBL_DATA_SIZE which gets automatically generated by the
asm-offsets tool. In the result, all definitions of this value can be
deleted from the board config files. We have to make sure that all
files that reference such data include the new <asm-offsets.h> file.
No other changes have been done yet, but it is obvious that similar
changes / simplifications can be done for other, related macro
definitions as well.
