[U-Boot-Users] PATCH: load ixp42x NPE firmware from separate flash block, remove dead code

[Michael Schwingen]

Hi,

the following patch adds support to move the IXP42X NPE firmware to a
separate flash block, whose start address is defined in
CONFIG_IXP4XX_NPE_EXT_UCODE_BASE. Using that, it is possible to build
NPE-enabled u-boot without copyright problems due to the NPE firmware.

I have also removed some unused code (#if 0 currently - should we completely
remove those unused parts?)

I hope the patch applies, I get whitespace-related differences in the NPE
files due to trailing whitespace in the original versions.
