When compile u-boot with the 2.18 binutils the following
warning messages for each object file in post/lib_ppc/fpu/ is
produced at the linking stage:

post/libpost.a(acc1.o) uses hard float, u-boot uses soft-float
...

This is because of the fact that, in general, the soft-float and
hard-float ABIs are incompatible; the 2.18 binutils do checking
of the Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_FP attribute of the files to be linked, and
produce the worning like above if these are not compatible.

The incompatibility of ABIs is concerned only the float values:
e.g. the soft-float ABI assumes the float argument passing in the
pair of rX registers, and the hard-float ABI assumes passing of
the float argument in the fX register. When we don't pass the float
arguments between the functions compiled with different floatness,
then such an application will work correctly.
This is the case for the FPU POST: u-boot (compiled with soft-float)
doesn't pass to (and doesn't get from) the FPU POST functions any
floats; there are no functions exported from the post/lib_ppc/fpu/
objects which would work with float parameters/returns too. So, we
can reassure the linker not to worry about the difference in ABI
attributes of linking files just by setting the 'soft-float'
attribute for the objects in post/lib_ppc/fpu. And this patch does
this.

Also, to avoid passing both soft- and hard-float options in CFLAGS
when compiling the files from post/lib_ppc/fpu (which is OK, but
looks rather dirty) this patch removes the soft-float string from
CFLAGS in post/lib_ppc/fpu/Makefile.

Some CPU POST tests did not disable the interrupts while running. This
seems to be necessary to protect this self modifying code.

This commit gets rid of a huge amount of silly white-space issues.
Especially, all sequences of SPACEs followed by TAB characters get
removed (unless they appear in print statements).

Also remove all embedded "vim:" and "vi:" statements which hide
indentation problems.

Introduce the new logical option CONFIG_HAS_POST which is set when the
platform has CONFIG_POST set. Use CONFIG_HAS_POST in the post/ Makefiles
to determine should the POST libs be compiled for the selected target
platform, or not.

To avoid breaking u-boot linking process, the empty post/libpost.a file is
created for platforms which do not have POSTs.

The CPU POST test code (run from cpu_post_exec_31()) doesn't follow the
ABI carefully, at least the CR3, CR4, and CR5 fields of CR are clobbered
by it. The gcc-4.2 with its more aggressive optimization exposes this fact.
This patch just saves the CR value before running the test code, so allowing
it to do anything it wants with CR.

Now with caches enabled (i- and d-cache) on 44x, we need a chance to
disable the cache for the CPU POST tests, since these tests consist
of self modifying code. This is done via the new change_tlb() function.
