eacb1962d4 [PATCH] powerpc: correct cacheflush loop in zImage
Correct the loop for cacheflush. No idea where I copied the code from,
but the original does not work correct. Maybe the flush is not needed.

9216ad8cb7 powerpc/32: Generate miboot images with ARCH=powerpc
Miboot images are apparently still used on some old 32-bit powermacs,
so build them with ARCH=powerpc if we're 32-bit and powermac support
is enabled.

b4e7de0f35 powerpc: Avoid unaligned loads and stores in boot memcpy code
The 601 processor will generate an alignment exception for accesses
which cross a page boundary.  In the boot wrapper code, OF is still
handling all exceptions, and it doesn't have an alignment exception
handler that emulates the instruction and continues.

This changes the memcpy and memmove routines in the boot wrapper to
avoid doing unaligned accesses.  If the source and destination are
misaligned with respect to each other, we just copy one byte at a
time.

66a45dd362 powerpc: Make COFF zImages for old 32-bit powermacs
This adds code to build zImage.coff and/or zImage.initrd.coff when
CONFIG_PPC32 and CONFIG_PPC_PMAC are defined.  It also restructures
the OF client code and adds some workarounds for OF quirks on the
older machines.

706e6b2caf [PATCH] powerpc: Fix suboptimal uImage target
Sam Ravnborg pointed out that calling if_changed was redundant in the
rule since a prerequisite had to have changed for us to get there.

powerpc: Add support for building uImages

Add support to build a kernel image bootable by u-boot.
Most of the makefile foo is taken from arch/ppc/boot/images/Makefile

94b212c29f powerpc: Move ppc64 boot wrapper code over to arch/powerpc
This also extends the code to handle 32-bit ELF vmlinux files as well
as 64-bit ones.  This is sufficient for booting on new-world 32-bit
powermacs (i.e. all recent machines).
