bcae721162 omap: add basic SPL support
- Provide alternate implementations of board_init_f()
  board_init_r() for OMAP spl.
- Provide linker script
- Initialize global data
- Add serial console support
- Update CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE to allow for SPL's bss and move
  it to board config header from config.mk

2c451f7831 armv7: cache maintenance operations for armv7
- Add a framework for layered cache maintenance
	- separate out SOC specific outer cache maintenance from
	  maintenance of caches known to CPU

- Add generic ARMv7 cache maintenance operations that affect all
  caches known to ARMv7 CPUs. For instance in Cortex-A8 these
  opertions will affect both L1 and L2 caches. In Cortex-A9
  these will affect only L1 cache

- D-cache operations supported:
	- Invalidate entire D-cache
	- Invalidate D-cache range
	- Flush(clean & invalidate) entire D-cache
	- Flush D-cache range
- I-cache operations supported:
	- Invalidate entire I-cache

- Add maintenance functions for TLB, branch predictor array etc.

- Enable -march=armv7-a so that armv7 assembly instructions can be
  used

6d8962e814 Switch from archive libraries to partial linking
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.

87d98d3b8e ARM: Use syslib functions for all CORTEXA8
The OMAP3 cpu directory contains a syslib file with some utilities
that can be shared by all targets using arm cortexa8 processors,
not only OMAP.

f56348af5d ARM: Rename arch/arm/cpu/arm_cortexa8 to armv7
The purpose of this patch is to prepare for adding the OMAP4 architecture, which is Cortex A9

Cortex A8 and A9 both belong to the armv7 architecture, hence the name change.

The two architectures are similar enough that substantial code can be shared.
