This patchset updates the PPC and board support to enable NFS boot.

Device tree fixup functionality for SOC version specific properties has
been added, these were imported from U-Boot files commom/fdt_support.c
and arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/fdt.c - version git-2b26201.

Since the boot memory mapping for the MPC85xx is limited to the first
64MiB, support has been added to ensure that the device tree is located
in this region before booting.

The P2020RDB configuration is updated to have device tree support
to boot Linux and environment support for the user to automate the boot
mechanism.

These modifications have been tested using a recent kernel (3.7-rc8).
There is no guarantee that older kernel and dtb versions will boot
correctly since support for older device tree fixup properties has not
been included.
