This patch changes the link script to base at CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE.
Then we can remove the text_base hook in nios2-generic board.

nios-32 arch was removed back in 2010 (1117cbf). Code depending on
its headers (nios.h, nios-io.h) can't possibly compile since then.
As it wasn't fixed till now it is safe to remove.

The top level Makefile does not do any recursion into subdirs when
cleaning, so these clean/distclean targets in random arch/board dirs
never get used. Punt them all.
MAKEALL didn't report any errors related to this that I could see.

Before this commit, weak symbols were not overridden by non-weak symbols
found in archive libraries when linking with recent versions of
binutils. As stated in the System V ABI, "the link editor does not
extract archive members to resolve undefined weak symbols".
This commit changes all Makefiles to use partial linking (ld -r) instead
of creating library archives, which forces all symbols to participate in
linking, allowing non-weak symbols to override weak symbols as intended.
This approach is also used by Linux, from which the gmake function
cmd_link_o_target (defined in config.mk and used in all Makefiles) is
inspired.
The name of each former library archive is preserved except for
extensions which change from ".a" to ".o". This commit updates
references accordingly where needed, in particular in some linker
scripts.
This commit reveals board configurations that exclude some features but
include source files that depend these disabled features in the build,
resulting in undefined symbols. Known such cases include:
- disabling CMD_NET but not CMD_NFS;
- enabling CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT but not CONFIG_QE.

This patch adds gpio support of Altera PIO component to the
nios2-generic board. Though it drives only gpio_led at the
moment, it supports bidirectional port to control bit-banging
I2C, NAND flash busy status or button switches, etc.

This is a generic approach to port u-boot for nios2 boards.
You may find the usage of this approach on the nioswiki,
http://nioswiki.com/DasUBoot
A fpga parameter file, which contains base address information
and drivers declaration, is generated from Altera's hardware system
description sopc file using tools.
The example fpga parameter file is compatible with EP1C20, EP1S10
and EP1S40 boards. So these boards can be removed after this commit.
Though epcs controller is removed to cut the dependency of altera_spi
driver.
