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 the "ecctest" command to test and simulate ECC errors
(single bit and/or double bit) while running from SDRAM. Currently only
the IBM DDR2 controller is supported (405EX, 440SP(e), 460EX/GT).
This is done by copying and calling functions, modifying the SDRAM
controller operation mode, in internal SRAM/OCM.
For correctable ECC errors (single bit) only the status will be printed
since the DDR2 controller doesn't provide the faulting address:
=> ecctest 1000000 1
Using address 01000000 for 1 bit ECC error injection
ECC: Correctable error
Uncorrectable ECC errors (double bit) will also display the faulting
address:
=> ecctest 1000000 2
Using address 01000000 for 2 bit ECC error injection
ECC: Uncorrectable error at 0x0001000000
To enable this "ecctest" function you need to define CONFIG_CMD_ECCTEST
in the board config header.
Tested on katmai and t3corp.

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.
Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.
