[MIPS] Request for the 'mips_cache_lock()' removal
The initial intension of having mips_cache_lock() was to use the cache
as memory for temporary stack use so that a C environment can be set up
as early as possible.
But now mips_cache_lock() follow lowlevel_init(). We've already have the
real memory initilaized at this point, therefore we could/should use it.
No reason to lock at all.
Other problems:
Cache locking is not consistent across MIPS implementaions. Some imple-
mentations don't support locking at all. The style of locking varies -
some support per line locking, others per way, etc. Some parts use bits
in status registers instead of cache ops. Current mips_cache_lock() is
not necessarily general-purpose.
And this is worthy of special mention; once U-Boot/MIPS locks the lines,
they are never get unlocked, so the code relies on whatever gets loaded
after U-Boot to re-initialize the cache and clear the locks. We're sup-
posed to have CFG_INIT_RAM_LOCK and unlock_ram_in_cache() implemented,
but leave the situation as it is for a long time.
For these reasons, I proposed the removal of mips_cache_lock() from the
global start-up code.
This patch adds CFG_INIT_RAM_LOCK_MIPS to make existing users aware that
*things have changed*. If he wants the same behavior as before, he needs
to have CFG_INIT_RAM_LOCK_MIPS in his config file.
If we don't have any regression report through several releases, then
we'll remove codes entirely.

lwmon5 SYSMON POST: fix backlight control
If the LWMON5 config has SYSMON POST among CONFIG_POSTs which may be
run on the board, then the SYSMON POST controls the display backlight
(doesn't switch backlight ON if POST FAILED, and does switch the
backlight ON if PASSED).
If not, then the video driver controls the display backlight (just
switch ON the backlight upon initialization).
In current source code, when the device number of PCI is 0, process PCI
bridge without fail. However, when the device number is 0, it is not PCI
always bridge. There are times when device of PCI allocates.
When CONFIG_PCI_SKIP_HOST_BRIDGE is enable, this problem is solved when
use this patch.

LWMON5: POST RTC fix
Modify the RTC API to provide one a status for the time reported by
the rtc_get() function:
0 - a reliable time is guaranteed,
< 0 - a reliable time isn't guaranteed (power fault, clock issues,
and so on).
The RTC chip drivers are responsible for providing this info if the
corresponding chip supports such functionality. If not - always
report that the time is reliable.
The POST RTC test was modified to detect the RTC faults utilizing
this new rtc_get() feature.

fdt_add_subnode_namelen() has a bug if asked to add a subnode to a
