[PATCH 2/3] ARM: PRIMA2: make mach-prima2 common for all SiRF series SoC

for the moment, that is needed just because the DEBUG UART base
address is difficult for different SoC. debug-macro.S is very early,
it depends on the SIRFSOC_UART1_PA_BASE.

 /* UART-1: used as serial debug port */
 #ifdef CONFIG_ARCH_PRIMA2
#define SIRFSOC_UART1_PA_BASE          0xb0060000
 #elif defined(CONFIG_ARCH_MARCO)
#define SIRFSOC_UART1_PA_BASE          0xcc060000
#endif
otherwise, PRIMA2 and MARCO can co-exist.

Ok, I see.

i think i can find some ways to set the rp dynamically according to chip type.
         .macro  addruart, rp, rv, tmp
         ldr     \rp, =SIRFSOC_UART1_PA_BASE             @ physical
         ldr     \rv, =SIRFSOC_UART1_VA_BASE             @ virtual
         .endm

The most common way to do this is to have multiple entries in
arch/arm/Kconfig.debug in the "Kernel low-level debugging port"
menu. For production kernels, you would just leave out DEBUG_LL
while for debugging you have to pick one UART.
