The following patch adds relocatable kernel support - based on processing
of dynamic relocations - for PPC44x kernel.

We find the runtime address of _stext and relocate ourselves based
on the following calculation.

virtual_base = ALIGN(KERNELBASE,256M) +
MODULO(_stext.run,256M)

relocate() is called with the Effective Virtual Base Address (as
shown below)

            | Phys. Addr| Virt. Addr |
Page (256M) |------------------------|
Boundary    |           |            |
            |           |            |
            |           |            |
Kernel Load |___________|_ __ _ _ _ _|<- Effective
Addr(_stext)|           |      ^     |Virt. Base Addr
            |           |      |     |
            |           |      |     |
            |           |reloc_offset|
            |           |      |     |
            |           |      |     |
            |           |______v_____|<-(KERNELBASE)%256M
            |           |            |
            |           |            |
            |           |            |
Page(256M)  |-----------|------------|
Boundary    |           |            |

The virt_phys_offset is updated accordingly, i.e,

virt_phys_offset = effective. kernel virt base - kernstart_addr

I have tested the patches on 440x platforms only. However this should
work fine for PPC_47x also, as we only depend on the runtime address
and the current TLB XLAT entry for the startup code, which is available
in r25. I don't have access to a 47x board yet. So, it would be great if
somebody could test this on 47x.
