This change adds a basic support for Embest/Timll DevKit3250 board, NOR and UART are the only supported peripherals for a moment. The board doesn't require low-level init, because the initial SDRAM and GPIO configuration is performed during kickstart bootloader execution.

Changes from v1 to v2:
- corrected address in GPLv2+ licence header in files
I think you should remove the address part completely, because next time it changes, will you be around to fix it?
I promise I'll be around, that's why I desire to become a maintainer of this board.
Nice! Though I don't think you can foresee the future or do you?
I know that there are many files already with address, but to make a big change it is better to start it from small - say all new coming patches.
Well, my small contribution is verifying address in license header found in new files.
Thanks, that is fare enough! I want to make sure you understand, that having the right address in the license statement is not a blocker.
I'd like to invite Wolfgang into discussion to get his opinion about the topic. Well, I do not feel myself as a lawer to allege that removing address info from the license notice is ok. Has it already been discussed in the mailing list?
Actually, you don't have to be a lawyer to verify if there is a requirement to have the postal address (that changes from time to time) in the license statement. AFAIK, there is no such requirement and the fact that huge amount of files has a wrong postal address just emphasizes this.
What I'm proposing here is a way to spare the effort of changing the postal address in the future. And if no one cares for the right address, then why bother writing it in the source code? To make the source code larger?
And yes of course, I would like to here what Wolfgang has to say about this.
removed clean and distclean targets from board makefile
do not set machine id explicitly, if CONFIG_MACH_TYPE is defined
minor indentation cleanups
