a4m072: support for SHOW_BOOT_PROGRESS feature using LED display
This patch adds support for displaying boot progress codes on a4m072 board
using LED display. As we can display only one symbol at any time on the hardware
(two symbols with blinking) we can't display progress codes directly and have
to map them to 2-symbol codes.
We use the following mapping on the a4m972 board:
[1, 8] U [100, 108] -> 5
[-9, -1] U [-101, -100] U [-113, -103] -> -5
[9, 14] U [120, 123] U [125, 129] -> 8
[-13, -10] U [-122, -120] U [-127, -124] U {-129} -> -8
{15} -> 9
[-32, -30] -> -A
[-40, -35] U [-51, -42] U [-58, -53] U
[-83, -80] U {-64, -130, -140, -150} -> -B
Other progress code are ignored. One symbol codes are displayed steady while
two-symbol codes are displayed using blinking. Boot progress codes are
displayed with decimal got unset (as opposed to 'display' command output).
This patch adds support for LED display on a4m072 board. Hardware is
capable of displaying only one symbol at any time. We support displaying
two symbols in software (via blinking).

VFAT: fix processing of scattered long file name entries
The U-Boot code has the following bugs related to the processing of Long File
Name (LFN) entries scattered across several clusters/sectors :
1) get_vfatname() function is designed to gather scattered LFN entries by
cluster chain processing - that doesn't work for FAT12/16 root directory.
In other words, the function expects the following input data:
1.1) FAT32 directory (which is cluster chain based);
OR
1.2) FAT12/16 non-root directory (which is also cluster chain based);
OR
1.3) FAT12/16 root directory (allocated as contiguous sectors area), but
all necessary information MUST be within the input buffer of filesystem cluster
size (thus cluster-chain jump is never initiated).
In order to accomplish the last condition, root directory parsing code in
do_fat_read() uses the following trick: read-out cluster-size block, process
only first sector (512 bytes), then shift 512 forward, read-out cluster-size
block and so on. This works great unless cluster size is equal to 512 bytes
(in a case you have a small partition), or long file name entries are scattered
across three sectors, see 4) for details.
2) Despite of the fact that get_vfatname() supports FAT32 root directory
browsing, do_fat_read() function doesn't send current cluster number correctly,
so root directory look-up doesn't work correctly.
3) get_vfatname() doesn't gather scattered entries correctly also is the case
when all LFN entries are located at the end of the source cluster, but real
directory entry (which must be returned) is at the only beginning of the
next one. No error detected, the resulting directory entry returned contains
a semi-random information (wrong size, wrong start cluster number and so on)
i.e. the entry is not accessible.
4) LFN (VFAT) allows up to 20 entries (slots) each containing 26 bytes (13
UTF-16 code units) to represent a single long file name i.e. up to 520 bytes.
U-Boot allocates 256 bytes buffer instead, i.e. 10 or more LFN slots record
may cause buffer overflow / memory corruption.
Also, it's worth to mention that 20+1 slots occupy 672 bytes space which may
take more than one cluster of 512 bytes (medium-size FAT32 or small FAT16
partition) - get_vfatname() function doesn't support such case as well.
The patch attached fixes these problems in the following way:
- keep using 256 bytes buffer for a long file name, but safely prevent a
possible buffer overflow (skip LFN processing, if it contains 10 or more
slots).
- explicitly specify FAT12/16 root directory parsing buffer size, instead
of relying on cluster size. The value used is a double sector size (to store
current sector and the next one). This fixes the first problem and increases
performance on big FAT12/16 partitions;
- send current cluster number (FAT32) to get_vfatname() during root
directory processing;
- use LFN counter to seek the real directory entry in get_vfatname() - fixes the
third problem;
- skip deleted entries in the root directory (to prevent bogus buffer
overflow detection and LFN counter steps).
Note: it's not advised to split up the patch, because a separate part may
operate incorrectly.

nand erase: .spread, .part, .chip subcommands
A while back, in http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2009-June/054428.html,
Michele De Candia posted a patch to not count bad blocks toward the
requested size to be erased. This is desireable when you're passing in
something like $filesize, but not when you're trying to erase a partition.
Thus, a .spread subcommand (named for consistency with
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2010-August/075163.html) is introduced
to make explicit the user's desire to erase for a given amount of data,
rather than to erase a specific region of the chip.
While passing $filesize to "nand erase" is useful, accidentally passing
something like $fliesize currently produces quite unpleasant results, as the
variable evaluates to nothing and U-Boot assumes that you want to erase
the entire rest of the chip/partition. To improve the safety of the
erase command, require the user to make explicit their intentions by
using a .part or .chip subcommand. This is an incompatible user interface
change, but keeping compatibility would eliminate the safety gain, and IMHO
it's worth it.
While touching nand_erase_opts(), make it accept 64-bit offsets and sizes,
fix the percentage display when erase length is rounded up, eliminate
an inconsistent warning about rounding up the erase length which only
happened when the length was less than one block (rounding up for $filesize
is normal operation), and add a diagnostic if there's an attempt to erase
beginning at a non-block boundary.

x86: Place global data below stack before entering C
By reserving space for the Global Data immediately below the stack during
assembly level initialisation, the C declaration of the static global data
can be removed, along with the 'RAM Bootstrap' function. This results in
cleaner code, and the ability to pass boot-up flags from assembler into C

x86: zboot update
The header of recent Linux Kernels includes the size of the image, and
therefore is not needed to be passed to zboot. Still process the third
parameter (size of image) in the event that an older kernel is being loaded

x86: Use TEXT_BASE in linker scripts
Use TEXT_BASE rather than a hard-coded base address on x86 linker scripts.
This will allow any board to define its base link address without having
to modify the linker script
sf: spansion: fixing erasing when sector size >64KiB
The spansion_erase currently only works when the sector size is 64KB.
cmd[1] should contain the higher 8 bit of the 24 bit address of the
sector to be erased. Currently it is holding the sector index to be
erased which happens to be the same thing when the sector size is
64KB.

This patch adds a new config parameter for adjusting the calculation of
hash table size when importing a buffer.
When importing a extremely small buffer (e.g. the default_environment)
the old calculation generated a hash table which could hold at most the
buffer content but no more entires.
The new calculation add a fixed number of entries to the result to fit
better for small import buffers. This amount may be configured by the
user in board file to adjust the behaviour.

cmd_elf: add an option for loading ELFs according to PHDRs
The current ELF loading function does a lot of work above and beyond a
simple "loading". It ignores the real load addresses and loads things
into their virtual (runtime) address. This is undesirable when we just
want it to load an ELF and let the ELF do the actual C runtime init.
So add a command line option to let people choose to load via either the
program or section headers. I'd prefer to have program header loading
be the default, but this would break historical behavior, so I'll leave
section header loading as the norm.
