This prevents references to _end from generating absolute
relocation records.
This change is binary invariant for ARM targets.

Some targets will build fine but not boot if sections .hash and
.got.plt are not present in the binary. Add them back.
Also, Exynos machines require .machine_param section in SPL.
Add it.

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.

Remove ARM eabi exception handling tables (for frame unwinding).
AFAICT, u-boot stubs away the frame unwiding routines, so the tables will
more or less just consume space. It should be OK to remove them.

This change is only done where needed: some linker
scripts may contain relocation symbols yet remain
unchanged.
__rel_dyn_start and __rel_dyn_end each requires
its own output section; putting them in relocation
sections changes their flags and breaks relocation.

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.

Remove SPL-related ASSERT() in arch/arm/cpu/u-boot.lds
as this file is never used for SPL builds.
Rewrite the ASSERT() in arch/arm/cpu/u-boot-spl.lds
to separately test image (text,data,rodata...) size,
BSS size, and full footprint each against its own max,
and make Tegra boards check full footprint.
Also, output section mmutable is not used in SPL builds.
Remove it.
Finally, update README regarding the (now homogeneous)
semantics of CONFIG_SPL_[BSS_]MAX_SIZE and add the new
CONFIG_SPL_MAX_FOOTPRINT macro.

Commit 3ebd1cbc introduced compiler-generated __bss_start
and __bss_end__ and commit c23561e7 rewrote all __bss_end__
as __bss_end. Their merge caused silent and harmless but
potentially bug-inducing clashes between compiler- and linker-
generated __bss_end symbols.
Make __bss_end and __bss_start compiler-only, and create
__bss_base and __bss_limit for linker-only use.

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.

Refactor linker-generated array code so that symbols
which were previously linker-generated are now compiler-
generated. This causes relocation records of type
R_ARM_ABS32 to become R_ARM_RELATIVE, which makes
code which uses LGA able to run before relocation as
well as after.
Note: this affects more than ARM targets, as linker-
lists span possibly all target architectures, notably
PowerPC.

Turn __bss_start and __bss_end__ from linker-generated
to compiler-generated symbols, causing relocations for
these symbols to change type, from R_ARM_ABS32 to
R_ARM_RELATIVE.
This should have no functional impact, as it affects
references to __bss_start and __bss_end__ only before
relocation, and no such references are done.

Add an ASSERT() to u-boot.lds to detect an SPL that doesn't fit within
SPL_TEXT_BASE..SPL_MAX_SIZE.
Different .lds files implement this check in two possible ways:
1) An ASSERT() like this
2) Defining a MEMORY region of size SPL_MAX_SIZE, and re-directing all
linker output into that region. Since u-boot.lds is used for both
SPL and main U-Boot, this would entail only sometimes defining a
MEMORY region, and only sometimes performing that redirection, and
hence option (1) was deemed much simpler, and hence implemented.
Note that this causes build failures at least for NVIDIA Tegra Seaboard
and Ventana. However, these are legitimate; the SPL doesn't fit within
the required space, and this does cause runtime issues.

When -ffunction-sections or -fdata-section are used, symbols are placed
into sections such as .data.eserial1_device and .bss.serial_current.
Update the linker script to explicitly include these. Without this
change (at least with my gcc-4.5.3 built using crosstool-ng), I see that
the sections do end up being included, but __bss_end__ gets set to the
same value as __bss_start.

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 .

Most ARM CPUs use a very similar link script. This adds a basic
script that can be used by most CPUs.
Two new symbols are introduced which are intended to eventually be
defined on all architectures to make things easier for generic relocation
and reduce special-case code for each architecture:
__image_copy_start is the start of the text area (equivalent to the
existing _start on ARM). It marks the start of the region which must be
copied to a new location during relocation. This symbol is called
__text_start on x86 and microblaze.
__image_copy_end is the end of the region which must be copied to a new
location during relocation. It is normally equal to the start of the BSS
region, but this can vary in some cases (SPL?). Making this an explicit
symbol on its own removes any ambiguity and permits common code to always
do the right thing.
This new script makes use of CPUDIR, now defined by both Makefile and
spl/Makefile, to find the directory containing the start.o object file,
which is always placed first in the image.
To permit MMU setup prior to relocation (as used by pxa) we add an area
to the link script which contains space for this. This is taken
from commit 7f4cfcf. CPUs can put the contents in there using their
start.S file. BTW, shouldn't that area be 16KB-aligned?
