.gitignore: ignore boot images by pattern rule /u-boot*

U-Boot supports various boot images for various SoCs.
It is annoying to modify .gitignore file every time
we add/delete boot images.

Fortunately, there is a simple rule:
Those with file name prefix "u-boot" at the top directory
are all generated files.

SMC91111: Fix compilation warnings

This patch fixes the following warning messages coming out of
'drivers/net/smc91111.h' when compiled for 'vexpress_aemv8a':

warning: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]

Currently this issue seems to surface when SMSC is compiled for 64-bit
ARMv8 platforms, so the change is protected under CONFIG_ARM64, so that
it doesn't break other existing platforms.

In addition this patch tries to fix some checkpatch errors and warnings
(others related to camel-casing and volatile usage will be addressed
by a later patch).

This fix has been tested on both ARMv8 foundation model v1 and v2.

ext4fs: Add ext4 extent cache for read operations

In an ext4 filesystem, the inode corresponding to a file has a 60-byte
area which contains an extent header structure and up to 4 extent
structures (5 x 12 bytes).

For files that need more than 4 extents to be represented (either files
larger than 4 x 128MB = 512MB or smaller files but very fragmented),
ext4 creates extent index structures. Each extent index points to a 4KB
physical block where one extent header and additional 340 extents could
be stored.

The current u-boot ext4 code is very inefficient when it tries to load a
file which has extent indexes. For each logical file block the code will
read over and over again the same blocks of 4096 bytes from the disk.

Since the extent tree in a file is always the same, we can cache the
extent structures in memory before actually starting to read the file.

This patch creates a simple linked list of structures holding information
about all the extents used to represent a file. The list is sorted by
the logical block number (ee_block) so that we can easily find the
proper extent information for any file block.

Without this patch, a 69MB file which had just one extent index pointing
to a block with another 6 extents was read in approximately 3 minutes.
With this patch applied the same file can be read in almost 20 seconds.

boards.cfg: Place "-" in the 8th field if it is the same as 7th

The 8th field of boards.cfg takes the form:
     <board config name>[:comma separated config options]

We should describe explicitely the 8th field only when it is necessary
to do so.
Specify "-" in the 8th field if it is the same as 7th field.

boards.cfg: Delete the equivalent entries

There are some entries which produce the same binaries:
 - ep8248E           is equivalent to ep8248
 - MPC8360ERDK_66    is equivalent to MPC8360ERDK
 - Adder87x/AdderUSB is equivalent to Adder
 - EVB64260_750CX    is equivalent to EVB64260

I also notice
 - Lite5200           is equivalent to icecube_5200
 - Lite5200_LOWBOOT   is equivalent to icecube_5200_LOWBOOT
 - Lite5200_LOWBOOT08 is equivalent to icecube_5200_LOWBOOT08
But I am keeping them.
(Wolfgang suggested to do so because Lite5200* are referenced
in misc documents.)
