--------------------------

These changes implement the bedbug (emBEDded deBUGger) debugger in U-Boot.

#####################
### Modifications ###
#####################

./common/Makefile
	Included cmd_bedbug.c and bedbug.c in the Makefile.

./common/board.c
	Added call to initialize debugger on startup.

./include/ppc_asm.tmpl

#################
### New Stuff ###
#################

./include/bedbug/ppc.h
./include/bedbug/regs.h
./include/bedbug/bedbug.h
./include/bedbug/elf.h		[obsoleted by new include/elf.h]
./include/bedbug/tables.h

	PowerPC instructions to/from memory as well as handling
	hardware breakpoints and stepping through code.  These
	routines are common to all PowerPC processors.
