EDK can also generate the "Linux BSP".
In this case EDK uses the scripts from (depending on your setup)
/opt/xilinx/edk/7.1/sw/ThirdParty/bsp/linux_v2_00_b/data/
In particular, linux_v2_1_0.tcl adds those "linux redefines"
and renames xparameters.h to xparameters_ml300.h.

The most reliable way is to generate both (bitstream and
xparameters_ml300.h) by yourself. :)

But if you are speaking about the xparameters_ml300.h in the community
trees (linuxppc-2.4 and the 2.6 one from kernel.org), this file
is for the reference design by Xilinx:
