Adopt reset vector handling from Yamon.

The difference between the address of the original
and the relocated _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ is always
the same as the relocation offset.
The relocation offset is already computed and it is
available in the 's1/t6' register. Use that to adjust
the relocated _G_O_T_ address, instead of calculating
the offset again from the _gp value.

Saving the parameters in advance unnecessarily complicates
the code. The destination address is already saved in the
's2' register, and that register is not clobbered by the
copy loop. The size of the copied data can be computed
after the copy loop is done.
Change the code to compute the size parameter right
before calling flush_cache, and set the destination
address parameter in the delay slot of the actuall
call.

The current code uses four instructions and a
temporary register to calculate the relocation
offset and to adjust the gp register.
The relocation offset can be calculated directly
from the CONFIG_SYS_MONITOR_BASE constant and from
the destination address. The resulting offset can
be used to adjust the gp pointer.
This approach makes the code a bit simpler because
it needs two instructions only.

Save the reused parameters at the beginning
of the 'relocate_code' function. This makes
the function a bit more readable.

The current code uses two instructions to load
the stack pointer into the 'sp' register.
This results in the following assembly code:
468: 3c088040 lui t0,0x8040
46c: 251d0000 addiu sp,t0,0
The first instuction loads the stack pointer into
the 't0' register then the value of the 'sp' register
is computed by adding zero to the value of the 't0'
register. The same issue present on the 64-bit version
as well:
56c: 3c0c8040 lui t0,0x8040
570: 659d0000 daddiu sp,t0,0
Change the code to load the stack pointer directly
into the 'sp' register. The generated code is functionally
equivalent to the previous version but it is simpler.
32-bit:
468: 3c1d8040 lui sp,0x8040
64-bit:
56c: 3c1d8040 lui sp,0x8040

The loop code copies more data with one than
necessary due to the 'ble' instuction. Use the
'blt' instruction instead to fix that.
Due to the lack of suitable hardware the Xburst
specific code is compile tested only. However the
change is quite obvious.

The romReserved and romExcHandle handlers are
accessed by a branch instruction however the
delay slots of those instructions are not filled.
Because the start.S uses the 'noreorder' directive,
the assembler will not fill the delay slots either,
and leads to the following assembly code:
0000056c <romReserved>:
56c: 1000ffff b 56c <romReserved>
00000570 <romExcHandle>:
570: 1000ffff b 570 <romExcHandle>
In the resulting code, the second branch instruction
is placed into the delay slot of the first branch
instruction, which is not allowed on the MIPS
architecture.

If bal is 8 bytes aligned, the _gp will not be 8 bytes aligned.
then the following ld insntrustion generates a Adel exception.
So here make _gp be always aligned in 8 bytes.

Because timestamp is declared as `static', we needn't initialize
it by writing it a zero. If we do it before relocate_code, we
will write into a flash address(0xffffffffbfc0xxxx).

Both big-endian and little-endian are tested with below commands:
Rom version: (Default, Now we config it as rom version)
qemu-system-mips64el -M mips -bios u-boot.bin -cpu MIPS64R2-generic -nographic
qemu-system-mips64 -M mips -bios u-boot.bin -cpu MIPS64R2-generic -nographic
Ram version:
qemu-system-mips64el -M mips -cpu MIPS64R2-generic -kernel u-boot -nographic
qemu-system-mips64 -M mips -cpu MIPS64R2-generic -kernel u-boot -nographic
