[U-Boot-Users] [MIPS] Make mips_io_port_base more generic

From: Shinya Kuribayashi <skuribay at ruby.dti.ne.jp>

Although mips_io_port_base is currently a part of IDE command, but it is
quite fundamental for MIPS memory mapped I/O port access such as in[bwl]
and out[bwl]. So let's move it to MIPS generic part.

This patch adds a helper routine for mips_io_port_base from Linux, and fixes
two multiple definition of this variable, tb0229 and gth2.

This change is triggered by gth2 build error:
board/gth2/libgth2.a(gth2.o): In function `log_serial_char':
/home/skuribay/devel/u-boot.git/board/gth2/gth2.c:47: multiple definition of `mips_io_port_base'
common/libcommon.a(cmd_ide.o):/home/skuribay/devel/u-boot.git/common/cmd_ide.c:712: first defined here
make: *** [u-boot] Error 1
