The following patches add basic support for the Nintendo Wii U video
game console, a PowerPC system somewhat similar to the GameCube and
Wii.

This includes:
- devicetree source
- bootwrapper support
- udbg console to bootloader
- early udbg console
- interrupt controllers
- platform support
- recognition of the Espresso processor
- workaround for the discontiguous RAM blocks

This is enough to boot on hardware. dmesg pics (with a small hack to
udbg-immortal, not included):

For those who have hardware and would like to try these patches, some
modification is required to the stock OS to allow Linux. For info:

Some of the design choices (new platform > embedded6xx) were discussed
previously:

Turns out even less changes were needed than previously anticipated for
discontiguous memory, and KUAP is yet to give trouble. Thanks to those
who helped and discussed this.

Changes since v2:
 - Fixed some overzealous deleting in the devicetree, oops.
 - Fixed missing declarations for some functions (thanks robots)
 - Fixed some checkpatch warnings.
 - Mark latte as a simple-bus and use of_platform_default_populate.
Changes since v1:
 - Style and formatting tweaks to the devicetree, thanks Rob Herring for
   the review.
