Wolfgang Denk 14d0a02a16 Rename TEXT_BASE into CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE
The change is currently needed to be able to remove the board
configuration scripting from the top level Makefile and replace it by
a simple, table driven script.

Moving this configuration setting into the "CONFIG_*" name space is
also desirable because it is needed if we ever should move forward to
a Kconfig driven configuration system.

Albert Aribaud da90d4ce38 arm: bugfix: replace ble with blo in start.S files
Generalized misuse of ble within relocation and bss
initialization loops caused one iteration too many.
Instead of ble ('branch if lower or equal'), use
blo ('branch if lower').

While we're at it, fix all 'addreee' typos.

Heiko Schocher e48b7c0aad ARM: implement relocation for ARM11
Change the implementation for ARM11 to relocate the code to an
arbitrary address in RAM.

Tested on the qong board.

Heiko Schocher 7e4a9e6dc8 ARM (ARM11): add data cache support, test on Qong board
Add data cache support for arm1136 systems.

Enable "cache" command on Qong board and test performance.

    Test 1: Loading 127 MB of data from NAND flash into RAM:

    Instr. Cache	off	on	on
      Data Cache	off	off	on
    --------------------------------------------------
    QONG (ARM11)	177s	95s	43s	= x 4.1

    Test 2: uncompressing a gzipped image from RAM to RAM
            (size compressed: 6.5 MiB, uncompressed: 35 MiB):

    Instr. Cache	off	on	on
      Data Cache	off	off	on
    --------------------------------------------------
    QONG (ARM11)	1.54s	0.95s	0.18s	= x 8.6

Vitaly Kuzmichev 1a27f7d9c2 ARM: Align stack to 8 bytes
The ARM ABI requires that the stack be aligned to 8 bytes as it is noted
in Procedure Call Standard for the ARM Architecture:
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ihi0042d/index.html

Unaligned SP also causes the problem with variable-length arrays
allocation when VLA address becomes less than stack pointer during
aligning of this address, so the next 'push' in the stack overwrites
first 4 bytes of VLA.

George G. Davis 409a07c9d7 ARM1136: Fix cache_flush() error and correct cpu_init_crit() comments
The ARM1136 cache_flush() function uses the "mcr p15, 0, rn, c7, c7, 0"
instruction which means "Invalidate Both Caches" when in fact the intent
is to clean and invalidate all caches.  So add an "mcr p15, 0, %0, c7,
c10, 0" instruction to "Clean Entire Data Cache" prior to the "Invalidate
Both Caches" instruction to insure that memory is consistent with any
dirty cache lines.

Also fix a couple of "flush v*" comments in ARM1136 cpu_init_crit() so
that they correctly describe the actual ARM1136 CP15 C7 Cache Operations
used.
