[U-Boot] [PATCH v4 1/3] arm: spl: Fix SPL booting for OMAP3

[Stefan Roese]

Fix a problem with a re-assignment of r8 in the SPL version.

This patch now moves the call to s_init() to a later stage, right before
calling board_init_f(). And makes sure that r8 is correctly initialized
before s_init() is called. r8 now is only written in crt0.S.

This error was detected on the SPL port for the Compulab CM-T35 board
(OMAP3530).

v4:
- Corrected commit text to reflect changed patch

v3:
- Some code shuffling in crt0.S as requested by Albert

v2:
- Change handling/initializing of r8 as suggested by Albert.
  It should only be written in crt0.S.
  
Tom, while working on this version one question came up:
Is lowlevel_init() (file arch/arm/cpu/armv7/omap3/lowlevel_init.S)
needed any more? It calls cpy_clk_code() to copy some clk init
code into SRAM. But I fail to see if and where this code is really
executed from SRAM. Maybe I missed something. Perhaps you could
shed some light into this.

Thanks, Stefan
