David Gibson ecc6cd73b7 [POWERPC] Start removing linux,network-index in favour of aliases
This patch alters the bootwrapper for a number of machines (roubhly
all 4xx based cuboot or treeboot platforms) to use aliases instead of
the linux,network-index hack to work out which MAC address to attach
to which ethernet device node.

The now obsolete linux,network-index properties are removed from the
corresponding device trees.  This won't break backwards compatiblity,
because in cases where this fixup code is relevant, the device tree is
part of the kernel image.

The references to linux,network-index are removed from
booting-without-of.txt.  Not only is it now deprecated, but as a hack
applicable only when the device tree blob and fixup code were in the
same image, this property never belonged in booting-without-of.txt
which describes the interface between the kernel and firmware or
bootloaders which produce a device tree.  By the time the device tree
reaches the kernel, all the MAC addresses must be fully filled in.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt 190de00538 [POWERPC] 4xx: Rework clock probing in boot wrapper
This reworks the boot wrapper library function that probes
the chip clocks. Better separate the base function that is
used on 440GX,SPe,EP,... from the uart fixups as those need
different device-tree path on different processors.

Also, rework the function itself based on the arch/ppc code
from Eugene Surovegin which I find more readable, and which
handles one more bypass case. Also handle the subtle difference
between 440EP/EPx and 440SPe/GX, on the former, PerClk is derived
from the PLB clock while on the later, it's derived from the OPB.

David Gibson 2f0dfeaa84 [POWERPC] Use embedded libfdt in the bootwrapper
This incorporates libfdt (from the source embedded in an earlier
commit) into the wrapper.a library used by the bootwrapper.  This
includes adding a libfdt_env.h file, which the libfdt sources need in
order to integrate into the bootwrapper environment, and a
libfdt-wrapper.c which provides glue to connect the bootwrapper's
abstract device tree callbacks to the libfdt functions.

In addition, this changes the various wrapper and platform files to
use libfdt functions instead of the older flatdevtree.c library.
