To be able to relocate the .bss section at run time independently from
the rest of the code, we must make sure that no GOTOFF relocations are
used with .bss symbols. This usually means that no global variables can
be marked static unless they're also const.
Let's remove the static qualifier from current offenders, or turn them
into const variables when possible. Next commit will ensure the build
fails if one of those is reintroduced due to otherwise enforced coding
standards for the kernel.

The HREFv60 variant of the MOP500 family of boards remove the
external GPIO expander and route these pins back to some of the
readily available internal GPIO pins instead.
Based on a patch by Bibek Basu <bibek.basu@stericsson.com> for
an internal kernel version.

The uncompress code for zImage uses the UART to print status messages,
this was hard coded to use UART2 for the U8500 platform. This patch
checks at run time which platform it is run on. U5500 uses UART0 as
console UART.

Don't use writeb() in uncompress.h, to avoid the following build errors
when the "Add barriers to the I/O accessors" series is applied. Use
__raw_writeb() instead.

Adds core support for the ST-Ericsson U8500
platform. It supports memory mappings, binds to
the existing modules like GIC, SCU, TWD and
local timers and sets up the infrastructure for
the secondary core.
