1a0afe1fad powerpc: ppc4xx: remove redundant CONFIG_4xx definition
We do not have to define CONFIG_4xx in board config headers
because it is defined in arch/powerpc/cpu/ppc4xx/config.mk.

include/configs/JSE.h defines "CONFIG_4x", not "CONFIG_4xx".
I believe it is a typo because "CONFIG_4x" is not used at all
in other files.
So, I also deleted "CONFIG_4x" in include/configs/JSE.h.

0defddc851 config: Add a default CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT
The definitions for CONFIG_SYS_PROMPT are varied with little reason other
than to display the board name. Over half the definitions are "==> ", so
make this the default. The rest of the boards remain unchanged to avoid
breaking any external scripts expecting a certain prompt.

9055f66c2d ppc4xx: Fix GPIO handling in lwmon5 and lcd4_lwmon5 BSP
LCD4 needs a slightly different GPIO configuration than the

f47b048b3a ppc4xx: Add lcd4_lwmon5 support
This patch adds the fast booting LWMON5 derivat "lcd4_lwmon5".
Its a stripped down version of the full blown lwmon5 support,
without ECC, USB, POST and some other stuff. It used the newly
introduced SPL infrastrucure for SPL from NOR flash booting
on the PPC4xx.

By setting the environment variable "boot_os" to "yes", Linux
will be started from the SPL version. If not, the "normal"
U-Boot will be started.

25ddd1fb0a Replace CONFIG_SYS_GBL_DATA_SIZE by auto-generated value
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.

5d7c73e65b ppc4xx: Use common ns16550 functions in 4xx UART POST driver
This patch changes the PPC4xx POST UART driver to use the common
NS16550 functions for receiving and sending. Additionally the
local function for SoC divisor setup are removed. Instead the
functions from arch/powerpc/cpu/ppc4xx/4xx_uart.c are used. This
removes code duplication.

Also the common CONFIG_SYS_NS16550_COMx defines are now used
to describe the POST UART's.

And a compile breakage is fixed, introduced by a git merge of
the ppc4xx/next branch into master. Now "ppc4xx.h" is moved to
"asm/ppc4xx.h". Fixed as well with this patch.

c37207d7f5 Fix printf() format problems with configurable prompts
U-Boot allows for configurable prompt strings using the
CONFIG_AUTOBOOT_PROMPT resp. CONFIG_MENUPROMPT definitions. So far,
the assumption was that any such user defined problts would contain
exactly one "%d" format specifier. But some boards did not.

To allow for flexible boot prompts without adding too complex code we
now allow to specify the whole list of printf() arguments in the user
definition. This is powerful, but requires a responsible user who
really understands what he is doing, as he needs to know for exanple
which variables are available in the respective context.

d32a874b9b lwmon5 watchdog: limit trigger rate
Limit the rate of h/w watch-dog triggering on the LWMON5 board by
the CONFIG_WD_MAX_RATE value.

Note that an earlier version of this patch which used microseconds
instead of ticks dis not work. The problem was that we used
usec2ticks() to convert microseconds into ticks. usec2ticks() uses
get_tbclk(), which in turn calls get_sys_info(). It turns out that
this function does a lot of prolonged operations (like divisions)
which take too much time so we do not trigger the watchdog in time,
and it resets the system.

If CFG_MEM_TOP_HIDE is defined in the board config header, this specified
memory area will get subtracted from the top (end) of ram and won't get
"touched" at all by U-Boot. By fixing up gd->ram_size the Linux kernel
should gets passed the now "corrected" memory size and won't touch it
either. This should work for arch/ppc and arch/powerpc. Only Linux board
ports in arch/powerpc with bootwrapper support, which recalculate the
memory size from the SDRAM controller setup, will have to get fixed
in Linux additionally.

This patch enables this config option on some PPC440EPx boards as a workaround
for the CHIP 11 errata. Here the description from the AMCC documentation:

CHIP_11: End of memory range area restricted access.
Category: 3

Overview:
The 440EPx DDR controller does not acknowledge any
transaction which is determined to be crossing over the
end-of-memory-range boundary, even if the starting address is
within valid memory space. Any such transaction from any PLB4
master will result in a PLB time-out on PLB4 bus.

Impact:
In case of such misaligned bursts, PLB4 masters will not
retrieve any data at all, just the available data up to the
end of memory, especially the 440 CPU. For example, if a CPU
instruction required an operand located in memory within the
last 7 words of memory, the DCU master would burst read 8
words to update the data cache and cross over the
end-of-memory-range boundary. Such a DCU read would not be
answered by the DDR controller, resulting in a PLB4 time-out
and ultimately in a Machine Check interrupt. The data would
be inaccessible to the CPU.

Workaround:
Forbid any application to access the last 256 bytes of DDR
memory. For example, make your operating system believe that
the last 256 bytes of DDR memory are absent. AMCC has a patch
that does this, available for Linux.

This patch sets CFG_MEM_TOP_HIDE for the following 440EPx boards:
lwmon5, korat, sequoia

The other remaining 440EPx board were intentionally not included
since it is not clear to me, if they use the end of ram for some
other purpose. This is unclear, since these boards have CONFIG_PRAM
defined and even comments like this:

PMC440.h:
/* esd expects pram at end of physical memory.
 * So no logbuffer at the moment.
 */

It is strongly recommended to not use the last 256 bytes on those
boards too. Patches from the board maintainers are welcome.
