Currently, the GDT is either located in FLASH or in the non-relocated
U-Boot image in RAM. Both of these locations are unsafe as those
locations can be erased during a U-Boot update. Move the GDT into the
highest available memory location and relocate U-Boot to just below it

Add a parameter to the 32-bit entry to indicate if entry is from Real
Mode or not. If entry is from Real Mode, execute the destructive 'sizer'
routine to determine memory size as we are booting cold and running in
Flash. If not entering from Real Mode, we are executing a U-Boot image
from RAM and therefore the memory size is already known (and running
'sizer' will destroy the running image)
There are now two 32-bit entry points. The first is the 'in RAM' entry
point which exists at the start of the U-Boot binary image. As such,
you can load u-boot.bin in RAM and jump directly to the load address
without needing to calculate any offsets. The second entry point is
used by the real-to-protected mode switch
This patch also changes TEXT_BASE to 0x6000000 (in RAM). You can load
the resulting image at 0x6000000 and simple go 0x6000000 from the u-boot
prompt
Hopefully a later patch will completely elliminate any dependency on
TEXT_BASE like a relocatable linux kernel (perfect world)

This commit gets rid of a huge amount of silly white-space issues.
Especially, all sequences of SPACEs followed by TAB characters get
removed (unless they appear in print statements).
Also remove all embedded "vim:" and "vi:" statements which hide
indentation problems.

- remove trailing white space, trailing empty lines, C++ comments, etc.
- split cmd_boot.c (separate cmd_bdinfo.c and cmd_load.c)
