Add support to build the PS3 flash rom image and remove some unneeded
lmb calls.
The PS3's lv1 loader supports loading gzipped binary images from flash
rom to addr zero. The loader enters the image at addr 0x100.
In this implementation a bootwrapper overlay is use to arrange for the
kernel to be loaded to addr zero and to have a suitable bootwrapper
entry at 0x100. To construct the rom image, 0x100 bytes from offset
0x100 in the kernel is copied to the bootwrapper symbol
__system_reset_kernel. The 0x100 bytes at the bootwrapper symbol
__system_reset_overlay is then copied to offset 0x100. At runtime the
bootwrapper program copies the 0x100 bytes at __system_reset_kernel to
addr 0x100.
zImage.ps3 is a wrapped image that contains a flat device tree, an lv1
compatible entry point, and an optional initrd. otheros.bld is the gzip
compresed rom image built from zImage.ps3. otheros.bld is suitable for
programming into the PS3 boot flash memory.

There are 2 config options that indicate whether the platform being built
has a device tree source file associated with it. Namely,
CONFIG_WANT_DEVICE_TREE and CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE. When CONFIG_WANT_DEVICE_TREE
is 'y' and CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE isn't an empty string, automatically wrap
the specified device tree with the zImage being built.
To achieve this, the 'dts' variable will only be set when the conditions
above are true. The changes to the zImage.initrd.% and zImage.% rules
cause the device tree to be wrapped when 'dts' is set; otherwise, they
will work as they previosly did (i.e., build a zImage with no device tree).

In the bootwrapper code for powerpc, we include HOSTCFLAGS into the
BOOTCFLAGS used for building the zImage wrapper code. Since the
wrapper code is not host code, this makes no sense. This patch
removes the use of HOSTCFLAGS here, instead including directly into
BOOTCFLAGS those flags from the normal kernel CFLAGS which also make
sense in the bootwrapper code.
In particular, this makes the bootwrapper use -msoft-float, preventing
the compiler from generating floating point instructions. Previously,
under some circumstances the compiler could generate floating point
instructions in the bootwrapper which would cause exceptions on
embedded CPUS which don't have floating point support.

The Motorola PrPMC280 and PrPMC2800 processor modules sit on an F101 or
PrPMC2800 baseboard, respectively. There are several variants of each
type of processor module which can have different amounts of memory,
amounts of FLASH, cpu frequencies, and an mv64360 or an mv64362.
The bootwrapper code for that platform reads VPD from an I2C EEPROM
to determine the processor module variant. From the variant, the
amount of memory, etc. is determined and the device tree is updated
accordingly. If the variant cannot be determined (e.g., corrupted
VPD or a previously unknown variant), the property values already
in the device tree are used.
Also, the firmware for those platforms does not completely configure

The mv64x60 host bridge has many windows between its various components

Unfortunately, the firmware on some of mv64x60-based platforms do not
properly or completely configure those windows (e.g., MPSC->system memory
windows not configured or CPU->PCI MEM space not configured).
So, the missing configuration needs to be done in either the bootwrapper
or in the kernel. To keep the kernel as clean as possible, it is done
in the bootwrapper. Note that I/O controller configuration is NOT being
done, its only the windows to allow the I/O controllers and other components
to access memory, etc. that is being done--drivers assume that their
controllers can already access system memory).

building gunzip_util.o usually works, but not always depending on make

Second, it makes the final images which are built using a dts
dependent on that dts, so the image will be correctly rebuilt if the
dts changes. This in turn requires fixing the definition of the dts
variable. CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE from Kconfig will have quotes around it,

This patch re-organises the way the zImage wrapper code is entered, to
allow more flexibility on platforms with unusual entry conditions.
After this patch, a platform .o file has two options:
1) It can define a _zimage_start, in which case the platform code gets
control from the very beginning of execution. In this case the
platform code is responsible for relocating the zImage if necessary,
clearing the BSS, performing any platform specific initialization, and
finally calling start() to load and enter the kernel.
2) It can define platform_init(). In this case the generic crt0.S
handles initial entry, and calls platform_init() before calling
start(). The signature of platform_init() is changed, however, to
take up to 5 parameters (in r3..r7) as they come from the platform's
initial loader, instead of a fixed set of parameters based on OF's
usage.
When using the generic crt0.S, the platform .o can optionally
supply a custom stack to use, using the BSS_STACK() macro. If this
is not supplied, the crt0.S will assume that the loader has
supplied a usable stack.
In either case, the platform code communicates information to the
generic code (specifically, a PROM pointer for OF systems, and/or an
initrd image address supplied by the bootloader) via a global
structure "loader_info".
In addition the wrapper script is rearranged to ensure that the
platform .o is always linked first. This means that platforms where
the zImage entry point is at a fixed address or offset, rather than
being encoded in the binary header can be supported using option (1).

At present, arch/powerpc/boot/main.c includes a gunzip() function
which is a convenient wrapper around zlib. However, it doesn't
conveniently allow decompressing part of an image to one location,
then the remainder to a different address.
This patch adds a new set of more flexible convenience wrappers around
zlib, moving them to their own file, gunzip_util.c, in the process.
These wrappers allow decompressing sections of the compressed image to
different locations. In addition, they transparently handle
uncompressed data, avoiding special case code to handle uncompressed
vmlinux images.
The patch also converts main.c to use the new wrappers, using the new
flexibility to avoid decompressing the vmlinux's ELF header twice as
we did previously. That in turn means we avoid extending our
allocations for the vmlinux to allow space for the extra copy of the

external zlib library's inflate performance was significantly faster (~50%)
than the code in the kernel on ARM (and faster again on x86_32).
For comparison the newer deflate code is 20% slower on ARM and 50% slower
on x86_32 but gives an approx 1% compression ratio improvement. I don't
consider this to be an improvement for kernel use so have no plans to
change the zlib_deflate code.
Various changes have been made to the zlib code in the kernel, the most
significant being the extra functions/flush option used by ppp_deflate.
This update reimplements the features PPP needs to ensure it continues to
work.
This code has been tested on ARM under both JFFS2 (with zlib compression
enabled) and ppp_deflate and on x86_32. JFFS2 sees an approx. 10% real
world file read speed improvement.
This patch also removes ZLIB_VERSION as it no longer has a correct value.
We don't need version checks anyway as the kernel's module handling will
take care of that for us. This removal is also more in keeping with the
zlib author's wishes (http://www.zlib.net/zlib_faq.html#faq24) and I've
added something to the zlib.h header to note its a modified version.

Miboot images are apparently still used on some old 32-bit powermacs,
so build them with ARCH=powerpc if we're 32-bit and powermac support
is enabled.

This adds code to build zImage.coff and/or zImage.initrd.coff when
CONFIG_PPC32 and CONFIG_PPC_PMAC are defined. It also restructures
the OF client code and adds some workarounds for OF quirks on the
older machines.

Sam Ravnborg pointed out that calling if_changed was redundant in the
rule since a prerequisite had to have changed for us to get there.

powerpc: Add support for building uImages
Add support to build a kernel image bootable by u-boot.
Most of the makefile foo is taken from arch/ppc/boot/images/Makefile

This also extends the code to handle 32-bit ELF vmlinux files as well
as 64-bit ones. This is sufficient for booting on new-world 32-bit
powermacs (i.e. all recent machines).
