This patch replaces the general alchemy prom_putchar() implementation
in favor of board-specific versions:  The UART where the output of
prom_putchar is directed to really depends on the board, the current
implementation hardcodes this on a per-SoC basis which is just wrong.

So a generic uart tx function is provided in the alchemy headers,
and the boards can provide their own prom_putchar with custom
destination uart, and all in-kernel alchemy boards support
early printk.

Since memsize is unsigned, it would seem better to use strict_strtoul that
strict_strtol.

A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as
follows: (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>
@s2@
long e;
position p;
@@

strict_strtol@p(...,&e)

@@
position p != s2.p;
type T;
T e;
@@

- strict_strtol@p
+ strict_strtoul
  (...,&e)
// </smpl>

An earlier update changed some calls from simple_strotl to strict_strtol but
did not account for the differences in the syntax between the calls.
simple_strotl returns the integer; strict_strtol returns an error code and
takes a pointer to the result.  As it was, NULL was being passed in place of
the result, which led to failures during kernel initialization when using
YAMON.

Fix several errors and warnings given by checkpatch.pl:

- use of C99 // comments;

- using simple_strtol() where strict_strtol() could be used.

In addition to these changes, also do the following:

- remove needless parentheses;

- remove unneeded numeric literal type cast;

- insert spaces between operator and its operands;

- remove excess new lines;

- remove space after the type cast's closing parenthesis;

- insert missing space before closing brace in the structure initializer;

- fix typos, capitalize acronyms, etc. in the comments;

- update MontaVista copyright;

- remove Pete Popov's old email address...

Go thru the Alchemy code and hunt down every unneeded #include, #define, and
extern (some of which refer to already long dead functions).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
