This adds the make infrastructure to build multiple SoC or
board specific images from a single barebox binary.
The basic idea is that we no longer have a single pbl, but instead
multiple pbls, one per image if necessary. Each pbl is defined
by its entry function so that each pbl can do exactly what a given
board needs. Additionally the pbls together with a self extracting
barebox binary can be encapsulated in specific image formats.
squashed in build fixes from Lucas Stach for make version >= 3.82:
Split Multimage Makefile rule in explicit and implicit parts
Fixes build with make version >=3.82
Frome the make 3.82 NEWS file:
* WARNING: Backward-incompatibility!
In previous versions of make it was acceptable to list one or more explicit
targets followed by one or more pattern targets in the same rule and it
worked "as expected". However, this was not documented as acceptable and if
you listed any explicit targets AFTER the pattern targets, the entire rule
would be mis-parsed. This release removes this ability completely: make
will generate an error message if you mix explicit and pattern targets in
the same rule.

This adds a new function __barebox_arm_head() which defines an
the regular barebox ARM header, but which jumps to the end of
the function so that this can be embedded into another function.
barebox_arm_head() now just uses it and jumps to barebox_arm_reset_vector
just like it did before.
This makes it possible to define board specific entry points.

For making the same binary executable on different SoCs which have
different DRAM addresses we have to be independent of the compile
time link address.
This patch adds relocatable binary support for the ARM architecture.
With this two new functions are available. relocate_to_current_adr
will fixup the binary to continue executing from the current position.
relocate_to_adr will copy the binary to a given address, fixup the
binary and continue executing from there.
For the PBL and the real image relocatable support can be enabled
independently. This is done to (hopefully) better cope with setups
where the PBL runs from SRAM or ROM and the real binary does not.

With relocatable binaries the vector addresses cannot be supplied by
the linker. This adds support for fixing them up during runtime.
Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer@pengutronix.de>
With relocatable binaries the linker is not able to supply absolute
addresses. These only get available when the relocation function is
being run. Since for early initialization we need some variables
before relocation, we supply them relatively to some known address
in the binary. This means that the variables have to be converted
to absolute addresses during runtime.
This patch adds a C macro and an assembly macro to calculate the
variables during runtime.

When we have multi cpu support compiled in we need the cpu architecture

Memory is a precious resource, so it makes sense to make it available as
early as possible. By definition the lowlevel init code already knows where
to find memory because it's the lowlevel init code which sets up the memory.
Until all boards are converted this new entry is just a fallback to the old
entry point.

Hi Sascha,
I've made the changes you suggested in this resent patch.
Everything related to custom ATAGs has been moved to the board
directory.
The generic code does not make any references to feature lists or
bootloader versions.
About the setup_feature_list prototype:
it has been renamed to atag_appender
it's not a function, it's a pointer to a function. Can it have a
prototype other than it's own declaration?
All non-related changes has been dropped. They were checkpatch.pl
warnings unrelated to this patch.
Regards,
Vicente.

On some SoCs (for example AM35xx), the ROM bootloader passes useful
information in r0 when jumping to barebox.
To avoid overwriting this in the generic reset code, we introduce
common_reset as a C function and as an assembler macro. This is then
called form the reset entry point (either in common or in board code).
