The bfin port is using the WITH_DEVICES framework for two reasons:
- get access to the cpu making the request (if available)
- check the alignment & size for core & system MMRs
We addressed the first part with commit dea10706e9,
and we handle the second part with this commit. Arguably this is more
correct too because trying to do bad reads/writes directly (when devices
support is disabled) often results in bad memory accesses.
As part of this clean up, we also adjust all of the existing logic that
would reject invalid accesses: the code was relying on the checks never
returning, but that's not the case when things like gdb (via the user's
commands) are making the requests. Thus we'd still end up with bad mem
accesses, or sometimes gdb being hung due to while(1) loops.
Now we can connect (most of) these models into any address and have them
work correctly.
Two modifications:
1. The addition of 2013 to the copyright year range for every file;
2. The use of a single year range, instead of potentially multiple
year ranges, as approved by the FSF.
To make it easier to support ebiu banks at other addresses, move the base to
a runtime parameter rather than structure. Future work will make this more
dynamic, but I'm waiting for more details first.

This can boot Das U-Boot and a Linux kernel. It also supports Linux
userspace FLAT and FDPIC (dynamic and static) ELFs.
