[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/6] powerpc/mpc85xx: support application without resetvec segment in the linker script

From: Ying Zhang <b40530 at freescale.com>

For SD/SPI 2-stage bootloader, the On-Chip Rom code loads the SPL into L2 SRAM,
then jump to it to begin execution. After that, the SPL loads the final uboot
image into DDR, then jump to it to begin execution. The segment .resetvec in
the SPL and in final U-boot is useless.

So, add new symbols CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC for this application.
If CONFIG_SYS_MPC85XX_NO_RESETVEC is set, the segment .resetvec is excluded
and the segment .bootpg is placed in the previous 4K of the segment .text.
