This preliminary support only includes the necessary code for timer
and IRQ support, the serial controller is a standard
16550-compatible one. The diffstat looks like:

FYI, built and tested on our system here and it gets to
printing the sched_clock line and getting no further.

I will have a debug.

Hum, strange. On which platform exactly?

Cogent CS1726, using MV78460 (A0)

I've built from scratch a kernel image this morning and boot tested it
on both the DB-78460-BP (Armada XP) and DB-88F6710-BP (Armada 370) this
morning, and it was working.

The only comment so far other than the review issues is that
we needed to enable CONFIG_HIGMEM to get>780MiB of memory
as this system comes with 2048MiB as standard.

Good point. Will do.

I'm guessing it'll be a useful default, but not a necessity.
