avr32: Add simple paging support


Use the MMU hardware to set up 1:1 mappings between physical and virtual
addresses. This allows us to bypass the cache when accessing the flash
without having to do any physical-to-virtual address mapping in the CFI
driver.

The virtual memory mappings are defined at compile time through a sorted
array of virtual memory range objects. When a TLB miss exception
happens, the exception handler does a binary search through the array
until it finds a matching entry and loads it into the TLB. The u-boot
image itself is covered by a fixed TLB entry which is never replaced.

This makes the 'saveenv' command work again on ATNGW100 and other boards
using the CFI driver, hopefully without breaking any rules.
