[U-Boot] [PATCH v6] arm, arm926ejs: Fix clear bss loop for zero length bss

[Christian Riesch]

This patch fixes the clear bss loop for bss sections that have
zero length, i.e., where __bss_start == __bss_end__.

Hi,
this is v6 of a patch out of my recent patchset

[PATCH v3 00/15] Add an SPL to boot the da850evm from SPI
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2011-November/111182.html

Changes for v6:
- replace beq clbss_e to allow for cases where r1-r0 is not a multiple of 4,
  as suggested by Albert Aribaud.

Changes for v5:
- correct subject line

Changes for v4:
- split the patchset since it is getting quite big

Regards, Christian
