David Gibson 2099172d61 [POWERPC] Document and implement an improved flash device binding for powerpc
This replaces the binding for flash chips in booting-without-of.txt
with an clarified and improved version.  It also makes
drivers/mtd/maps/physmap_of.c recognize this new binding.  Finally it
revises the Ebony device tree source to use the new binding as an
example.

Josh Boyer c9c6b744d8 [POWERPC] Remove dtc build cruft from DTS files
The patch below removes the dtc incantation instructions from the
in-kernel DTS files.  It's not needed, and is prone to being
out-of-date most of the time.

David Gibson 0d279d4761 [POWERPC] Fixes to allow use of Ebony's flash chips through physmap_of
This patch contains a handful of small fixes to allow the Ebony's
flash to be exposed as MTD devices via the physmap_of driver.
Specifically it:
	- Makes a small addition to the device tree and zImage wrapper
to record the correct address for the flash in the device tree based
on the board switches as reported via an FPGA register.
	- Prohibits building the old hard-coded "Ebony" flash map on
arch/powerpc kernels, in favour of using physmap_of's device tree
based approach.
	- Enables MTD and physmap_of in the Ebony defconfig.

David Gibson b2ba34f370 [POWERPC] Derive ebc ranges property from EBC registers
In the device tree for Ebony, the 'ranges' property in the node for
the EBC bridge shows the mappings from the chip select / address lines
actually used for the EBC peripherals into the address space of the
OPB.  At present, these mappings are hardcoded in ebony.dts for the
mappings set up by the OpenBIOS firmware when it configures the EBC
bridge.

This replaces the hardcoded mappings with code in the zImage to
read the EBC configuration registers and create an appropriate ranges
property based on them.  This should make the zImage and kernel more
robust to changes in firmware configuration.  In particular, some of
the Ebony's DIP switches can change the effective address of the Flash
and other peripherals in OPB space.  With this patch, the kernel will
be able to cope with at least some of the possible variations.

David Gibson c72ea777d4 [POWERPC] Small fixes for the Ebony device tree
This patch corrects a number of minor errors in the Ebony device tree:
	- Missing (given as 0) cache sizes are added to the CPU node
	- device_type properties are removed from nodes which don't
have a reasonably well defined device_type binding.  This does require
a very small code change to locate the busses to be probed for
of_platform devices by 'compatible' instead of 'device_type'.
	- A node is added for the SRAM controller
	- The unit address of the small-flash node is adjusted to
correctly reflect the reg property.
	- device_type values for the MAL and ZMII are updated to
reflected more up-to-date versions of the binding.
	- An incorrect offset in the partition map for the large-flash
node is corrected.
	- Some redundant values, already commented out are removed
entirely.

David Gibson ea20ff5d03 [POWERPC] Add device tree for Ebony
Add a device tree for the Ebony evaluation board (440GP based).  This
tree is not complete or finalized.  This tree needs a version of dtc
recent enough to include reference-to-labels to process.
