64134f0112 Fix linker scripts: add NOLOAD atribute to .bss/.sbss sections
With recent toolchain versions, some boards would not build because
or errors like this one (here for ocotea board when building with
ELDK 4.2 beta):
ppc_4xx-ld: section .bootpg [fffff000 -> fffff23b] overlaps section .bss [fffee900 -> fffff8ab]

For many boards, the .bss section is big enough that it wraps around
at the end of the address space (0xFFFFFFFF), so the problem will not
be visible unless you use a 64 bit tool chain for development. On
some boards however, changes to the code size (due to different
optimizations) we bail out with section overlaps like above.

The fix is to add the NOLOAD attribute to the .bss and .sbss
sections, telling the linker that .bss does not consume any space in
the image.

5e378003d5 board/[Ma-i]*: Augment CONFIG_COMMANDS tests with defined(CONFIG_CMD_*).
This is a compatibility step that allows both the older form
and the new form to co-exist for a while until the older can
be removed entirely.

All transformations are of the form:
Before:
    #if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)
After:
    #if (CONFIG_COMMANDS & CFG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT) || defined(CONFIG_CMD_AUTOSCRIPT)

f93286397e Add support for a saving build objects in a separate directory.
Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and
support two use cases:

  1) Add O= to the make command line
  'make O=/tmp/build all'

  2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location
  'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
  'make'

The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'./MAKEALL'

Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable.

When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and
the object files are placed in the source directory.

95f9dda216 Eliminate hard-coded address of Ethernet transfer buffer on at91rm9200
Patch by Anders Larsen, 07 Oct 2005

The Atmel errata #11 states that the transfer buffer descriptor
table must be aligned on a 16-word boundary. As it turned out, this
is insufficient - it seems the table must be aligned on a boundary
at least as large as the table itself (in Linux this is not an
issue - the table is aligned on a PAGE_SIZE (4096) boundary).
