1017296247 dm: spl: Support device tree when BSS is in a different section
At present in SPL we place the device tree immediately after BSS. This
avoids needing to copy it out of the way before BSS can be used. However on
some boards BSS is not placed with the image - e.g. it can be in RAM if
available.

Add an option to tell U-Boot that the device tree should be placed at the
end of the image binary (_image_binary_end) instead of at the end of BSS.

Note: A common reason to place BSS in RAM is to support the FAT filesystem.
We should update the code so that it does not use so much BSS.

09d81184e1 remove all references to .dynsym
Discard all .dynsym sections from linker scripts
Remove all __dynsym_start definitions from linker scripts
Remove all __dynsym_start references from the codebase

Note: this touches include/asm-generic/sections.h, which
is not ARM-specific, but actual uses of __dynsym_start
are only in ARM, so this patch can safely go through
the ARM repository.

a733b06b69 sandbox: Switch over to generic board
Add generic board support for sandbox. and remove the old board init code.

Select CONFIG_SYS_GENERIC_BOARD for sandbox now that this is supported.

1865286466 Introduce generic link section.h symbol files
We create a separate header file for link symbols defined by the link
scripts. It is helpful to have these all in one place and try to
make them common across architectures. Since Linux already has a similar
file, we bring this in even though many of the symbols there are not
relevant to us.

Each architecture has its own asm/sections.h where symbols specifc to
that architecture can be added. For now everything except AVR32 just
includes the generic header.

One change is needed in arch/avr32/lib/board.c to make this conversion
work.
