Since CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP depends on CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT:

  config OF_BOARD_SETUP
          bool "Set up board-specific details in device tree before boot"
          depends on OF_LIBFDT
          ...

remove superfluous tests of CONFIG_OF_LIBFDT when testing for
CONFIG_OF_BOARD_SETUP.

<title>fdt: Allow ft_board_setup() to report failure</title>

This function can fail if the device tree runs out of space. Rather than
silently booting with an incomplete device tree, allow the failure to be
detected.

Unfortunately this involves changing a lot of places in the code. I have
not changed behvaiour to return an error where one is not currently
returned, to avoid unexpected breakage.

Eventually it would be nice to allow boards to register functions to be
called to update the device tree. This would avoid all the many functions
to do this. However it's not clear yet if this should be done using driver
model or with a linker list. This work is left for later.

Since commit ddaf5c8f3030050fcd356a1e49e3ee8f8f52c6d4
(patman: RunPipe() should not pipe stdout/stderr unless asked),
Patman spits lots of "Invalid MAINTAINERS address: '-'"
error messages for patches with global changes.
It takes too long for Patman to process them.

Anyway, "M:    -" does not carry any important information.
Rather, it is just like a place holder in case of assigning
a new board maintainer.  Let's comment out.

This commit can be reproduced by the following command:

find . -name MAINTAINERS | xargs sed -i -e '/^M:[[:blank:]]*-$/s/^/#/'

<title>kconfig: remove redundant "string" type in arch and board Kconfigs</title>

Now the types of CONFIG_SYS_{ARCH, CPU, SOC, VENDOR, BOARD, CONFIG_NAME}
are specified in arch/Kconfig.

We can delete the ones in arch and board Kconfig files.

This commit can be easily reproduced by the following command:

find . -name Kconfig -a ! -path ./arch/Kconfig | xargs sed -i -e '
/config[[:space:]]SYS_\(ARCH\|CPU\|SOC\|\VENDOR\|BOARD\|CONFIG_NAME\)/ {
    N
    s/\n[[:space:]]*string//
}

We have switched to Kconfig and the boards.cfg file is going to
be removed. We have to retrieve the board status and maintainers
information from it.

The MAINTAINERS format as in Linux Kernel would be nice
because we can crib the scripts/get_maintainer.pl script.

After some discussion, we chose to put a MAINTAINERS file under each
board directory, not the top-level one because we want to collect
relevant information for a board into a single place.

TODO:
Modify get_maintainer.pl to scan multiple MAINTAINERS files.

<title>kconfig: add board Kconfig and defconfig files</title>

This commit adds:
 - arch/${ARCH}/Kconfig
    provide a menu to select target boards
 - board/${VENDOR}/${BOARD}/Kconfig or board/${BOARD}/Kconfig
    set CONFIG macros to the appropriate values for each board
 - configs/${TARGET_BOARD}_defconfig
    default setting of each board

(This commit was automatically generated by a conversion script
based on boards.cfg)

In Linux Kernel, defconfig files are located under
arch/${ARCH}/configs/ directory.
It works in Linux Kernel since ARCH is always given from the
command line for cross compile.

But in U-Boot, ARCH is not given from the command line.
Which means we cannot know ARCH until the board configuration is done.
That is why all the "*_defconfig" files should be gathered into a
single directory ./configs/.

The top level Makefile does not do any recursion into subdirs when
cleaning, so these clean/distclean targets in random arch/board dirs
never get used.  Punt them all.

MAKEALL didn't report any errors related to this that I could see.

<title>Switch from archive libraries to partial linking</title>

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.
