[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/6] sbc8641d: misc fixes and generic board enablement

The sbc8641d is not really a state of the art board anymore, but it
does have the distinctive feature of being one of the relatively few
SMP powerpc boards around.  Combined with its small form factor, it
remains a useful testing platform.  So here we enable the generic
board support so that it can remain in tree.

It turns out that in bringing the board forward, we've run into the
size limit for the image, due to inevitable expansion, which led
to some odd testing behaviour, depending on .config settings etc.
Here we increase the image space from two 128k sectors to three,
so we should be good for as long as the board remains relevant now.
