Um.. this stuff is still heavily in flow.

I hope these commits are stable now:

6360255  Rename TEXT_BASE into CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE
6836296  mkconfig: change CONFIG_MK_ prefix into plain CONFIG_
af726cf  Build: Add "board options" column to boards.cfg

but at least the two topmost commits

65370be  Makefile: move all Power Architecture boards into boars.cfg
ccc23e9  Makefile: avoid CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE redefinitions

are still highly experimental, incomplete and incorrect.

I didn't feel this to be stuff for a branch in the master repo yet.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
