The following series of patches prepares the ground to move the
remaining board configuration entries out of the Makefile into the
boards.cfg file, replacing multi-line scripts to fiddle with config.h
and config.mk files into simple, single-line entries.
[PATCH 1/3] Build: Add "board options" column to boards.cfg
Build: Add "board options" column to boards.cfg
There are some boards where it's currently not possible to detect all
board information at runtime, therefore a new column was added to
boards.cfg .
This column can contain multiple options: a board configuration name,
optionally followed by a colon (':') and a list of options, which are
separated by comma (',').
In case of simple options like '256M_U_BOOT', these expand to
"#define CONFIG_MK_256M_U_BOOT 1" in config.h . In case of
assignments like 'RAM=8192', these expand to "#define CONFIG_MK_RAM
8192" in config.h .
Example:
FOO:HAS_BAR,BAZ=64
means:
- the name of the board config file is include/configs/FOO.h
- the generated file include/config.h will contain these
lines:
#define CONFIG_HAS_BAR 1
#define CONFIG_BAZ 64

[PATCH 2/3] mkconfig: change CONFIG_MK_ prefix into plain CONFIG_
mkconfig: change CONFIG_MK_ prefix into plain CONFIG_
When planning for more generalization and Makefile cleanup it became
obvious that the introduction of a separate CONFIG_MK_ name space for
config options that were set through scripting in the Makefile was
not a good idea.
Originally the idea was to provide a script-free approach to supply
configuration options - there was no real need for a separate name
space. But when we now convert the existing Makefile entries to make
use of this approach, it would mean that we have to touch a large
number of board config files and add #ifdef / #define sequences to
"convert" from the CONFIG_MK_ to the CONFIG_ name space.
It seems much cleaner to get rid of this somewhat arbitrary _MK
string now for the few boards that actually use it.

[PATCH 3/3] Rename TEXT_BASE into CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE
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.

Potential testers can find these (and some more experimental) commits
in the "Makefile-cleanup" branch in the u-boot-testing repository.
