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.

The environment is the canonical storage location of the mac address, so
we're killing off the global data location and moving everything to
querying the env directly.
Rather than have common ppc code call a board-specific function like
load_sernum_ethaddr(), have each board call it in its own board-specific
misc_init_r() function.
The boards that get converted here are:
- kup4k/kup4x
- pcs440ep
- tqm8xx

THe TQM8xxL use a ahnd-optimized linker script to efficiently use the
small boot sectors in the flash. This patch makes some room in the
first sector to prepare for a size increase of lib_generic/vsprintf.o
by a future patch.

Commit 6b59e03e02
lcd: Let the board code show board-specific info
introduced some bugs which prevent U-Boot building
for lwmon board if CONFIG_LCD_INFO_BELOW_LOGO will
be defined in the board configuration.
Also "LCD enabled" building for TQM823L doesn't work
since this commit.
This patch fixes above-mentioned issues.

Most of the bss initialization loop increments 4 bytes
at a time. And the loop end is checked for an 'equal'
condition. Make the bss end address aligned by 4, so
that the loop will end as expected.

The information displayed when CONFIG_LCD_INFO is set is inherently
board-specific, so it should be done by the board code. The current code
dealing with this only handles two cases, and is already a horrible mess
of #ifdeffery.
Yes, this duplicates some code, but it also allows boards to print more
board-specific information; this used to be very difficult.

After switching to using the CFI flash driver, the correct remapping
of the flash banks was forgotten.
Also, some boards were not adapted, and the old legacy flash driver
was not removed yet.

This patch changes the return type of initdram() from long int to phys_size_t.
This is required for a couple of reasons: long int limits the amount of dram
to 2GB, and u-boot in general is moving over to phys_size_t to represent the
size of physical memory. phys_size_t is defined as an unsigned long on almost
all current platforms.
This patch *only* changes the return type of the initdram function (in
include/common.h, as well as in each board's implementation of initdram). It
does not actually modify the code inside the function on any of the platforms;
platforms which wish to support more than 2GB of DRAM will need to modify
their initdram() function code.
Build tested with MAKEALL for ppc, arm, mips, mips-el. Booted on powerpc
MPC8641HPCN.
