[U-Boot-Users] [Patch 2/2] U-Boot-V2: ARM: enable function cleanup by gcc

[Menon, Nishanth]

Does the following:
* Add cleanup flags which will allow gcc to delete function sections which are unused.
* mark the initcall sections and uboot cmds, symbols as being retained (else gcc will kill those too).
