Shinya Kuribayashi 2f5d414ccb [MIPS] cpu/mips/cache.S: Introduce NESTED/LEAF/END macros
This patch replaces the current function definitions with NESTED, LEAF
and END macro. They specify some more additional information about the
function; an alignment of symbol, type of symbol, stack frame usage, etc.
These information explicitly tells the assembler and the debugger about
the types of code we want to generate.

Shinya Kuribayashi e1390801a3 [MIPS] Request for the 'mips_cache_lock()' removal
The initial intension of having mips_cache_lock() was to use the cache
as memory for temporary stack use so that a C environment can be set up
as early as possible.

But now mips_cache_lock() follow lowlevel_init(). We've already have the
real memory initilaized at this point, therefore we could/should use it.
No reason to lock at all.

Other problems:

Cache locking is not consistent across MIPS implementaions. Some imple-
mentations don't support locking at all. The style of locking varies -
some support per line locking, others per way, etc. Some parts use bits
in status registers instead of cache ops. Current mips_cache_lock() is
not necessarily general-purpose.

And this is worthy of special mention; once U-Boot/MIPS locks the lines,
they are never get unlocked, so the code relies on whatever gets loaded
after U-Boot to re-initialize the cache and clear the locks. We're sup-
posed to have CFG_INIT_RAM_LOCK and unlock_ram_in_cache() implemented,
but leave the situation as it is for a long time.

For these reasons, I proposed the removal of mips_cache_lock() from the
global start-up code.

This patch adds CFG_INIT_RAM_LOCK_MIPS to make existing users aware that
*things have changed*. If he wants the same behavior as before, he needs
to have CFG_INIT_RAM_LOCK_MIPS in his config file.

If we don't have any regression report through several releases, then
we'll remove codes entirely.
