Add support for loading U-Boot on the Broadcom 7445 SoC. This port assumes Broadcom's BOLT bootloader is acting as the second stage bootloader, and U-Boot is acting as the third stage bootloader, loaded as an ELF program by BOLT.

Looks good, still some minor comments about the choice of representation for physical addresses of peripherals, see below.
+config BCMSTB_TIMER_LOW
- hex "Address of BCMSTB timer low register"
- default 0xf0412008
This looks very simplistic here since the CPU system control timer is a 64-bit timer.
I am really not a big fan of all of those configurable addresses which are a) fixed given a specific SoC family (7445, 7439 etc.) and b) are error prone because we let an user change those without necessarily knowing what is the implication. I really think sticking those constants into a header file would be much more appropriate.

This heavily depends on how you load your binary from BOLT, so you must be careful about this statement here.
