[U-Boot] [PATCH V2] arm/board.c: avoid ifdef using weak default functions

From: Alessandro Rubini <rubini at unipv.it>

While it's a matter of personal taste, I prefer to avoid ifdef when
possible.  For example, I don't like to add BOARD_LATE_INIT in the
config file just to add a board_late_init() function.
Also, I think the file is more readable without the ifdef stuff.
This uses two trivial weak functions to provide defaults for all
functions that were ifdeffed.

This patch was initially rejected in favor of a initcall mechanism
but that approach is not a work in progress any ore.
---

One complaint I got about this is the runtime overhead. Actually,
normal_nop is two instructions (plus the call to it) and void_nop
is one instruction (plus the call), similar to the overhead in
led management for platforms with no leds.
