Exception handling is basically identical for all ARM targets.
Factorize it out of the various start.S files and into a
single vectors.S file, and adjust linker scripts accordingly.

Current LDS files /DISCARD/ a lot of sections when linking ELF
files, causing diagnostic tools such as readelf or objdump to
produce partial output. Keep all section at link stage, filter
only at objcopy time so that .bin remains minimal.

Note1:
In arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/spear/Makefile
START := start.o
was changed
extra-$(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) := start.o
because spear/start.o is only used for SPL.
Note2:
START := start.o
was missing from arch/arm/cpu/arm926ejs/mxs/Makefile.
This commit simply adds
extra-$(CONFIG_SPL_BUILD) := start.o

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.

'bool' is defined in random places. This patch consolidates them into a
single header file include/linux/types.h, using stdbool.h introduced in C99.
All other #define, typedef and enum are removed. They are all consistent with
true = 1, false = 0.
Replace FALSE, False with false. Replace TRUE, True with true.

Note this is a tree-wide change affecting multiple architectures.
At present we use __bss_start, but mostly __bss_end__. This seems
inconsistent and in a number of places __bss_end is used instead.
Change to use __bss_end for the BSS end symbol throughout U-Boot. This
makes it possible to use the asm-generic/sections.h file on all
archs.

Many SPL linker scripts needlessly include linker lists (aka LGAs).
Remove them whenever possible; keep it only in the seven am335x_evm
variants (am335x_evm, am335x_evm_uart[1-5], am335x_evm_spiboot),
where there is actual content in output section .u_boot_list.
This commit keeps all u-boot.bin and u-boot-spl.bin in ARM targets
byte-identical.

The command declaration now uses the new LG-array method to generate
list of commands. Thus the __u_boot_cmd section is now superseded and
redundant and therefore can be removed. Also, remove externed symbols
associated with this section from include/command.h .

In some circumstances, reset_timer_masked() was called be timer_init() in
order to perform architecture specific timer initialisation. In such
cases, the required code in reset_timer_masked() has been moved into
timer_init()
Reuse the gd->tbl value for timestamp and add gd->lastinc for lastinc bss
values in the arm926ejs timers implementation.
The usage of bss values in drivers before initialisation of bss is forbidden.
In that special case some data in .rel.dyn gets corrupted.
This patch is similiar to the patch Dirk Behme posted
for the armv7/omap-common/timer.c and added suggestions
from Reinhard Meyer.

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.
