This patch is based on ARM pbl support and allows
creating a pre-bootloader binary for compressed image.
For different MIPS SoCs (or even for different boards based
on the same SoC) the operations carried on in start-pbl.S
can be very different. The additional constraints can be imposed
on the size of the boot code or the special magic labels in
the beginning of the boot code; In some cases it could be
necessary to show CPU is alive as early as possible
(transmit a char via UART or blink a LED).
So the demands for pbl start operation can be very different.
E.g. malta board store boot code at the NOR flash mapped
to the MIPS power-on address (0xbfc00000); it is the most
simple case: we need just copy pbl image from direct-mapped
flash to RAM and jump there.
The XBurst-powered boards store boot code in the beginning
of a NAND flash or in the beginning of SD/MMC card.
In this case we must use simple and short NAND or SD/MMC access
routines to copy pbl image to RAM.
To meet so different demands a simple technique is selected:
* MIPS pbl entry point located in file arch/mips/boot/start-pbl.S.
* MIPS pbl code (see start-pbl.S) assumes that every pbl-enabled
board has a arch/mips/boards/<BOARD>/include/board/board_pbl_start.h
header file. This file must contain definition of
the board_pbl_start macro. This macro is used as start of pbl image;
* the most popular asm routines (stack setup, relocation to link
address, NS16550 initialization (WIP) and so on) are containt
in the arch/mips/include/asm/pbl_macros.h header file.
So board pbl macro can use it if necessary.
It is possible to create similar headers with macros for each
specific SoC; so even if we have many different boards based
on the same SoC the board_pbl_start macro for every board
can be short and clear.
* after board-specific initialization the stack pointer
is initialized and pbl C code is started.

Add start.S, CP0 clocksource, Makefile, linker script and memory
layout function.
