Description of the Change
This rebases the armadaxp support on top of the new flash-kernel architecture. I've tested it in a quantal install w/ a hacked mirror & things went fine.
I'd like to push these changes into Debian as well - but I think the boot script needs some work first. Low-hanging fruit is to trim the Ubuntu/Canonical references, but I also wonder if the boot.scr (which is what we shipped in precise) works as expected on this platform. It seems to assume that load addresses are preset in the environment, which they don't appear to be on the board I'm using. That probably needs further investigation, but this change is enough to avoid precise->quantal regressions.

i'll merge this with omitting the binary bits later today

I think bootscript/ bootscr. armadaxp needs to have the mkimage header stripped from the start; it's gone in as a binary, but the others in there are text and presumably flash-kernel runs mkimage on them first. Just strip the first 64 bytes.
