* Make Ethernet autonegotiation on INCA-IP work for all clock rates;
allow selection of clock frequency as "make" target
* Implement memory autosizing code for IceCube boards
* Configure network port on INCA-IP for autonegotiation
* Fix overflow problem in network timeout code
* Patch by Richard Woodruff, 8 Aug 2003:
Allow crc32 to be used at address 0x000 (crc32_no_comp, too).

+Ethernet autonegotiation needs some time to complete. Instead of
+delaying the boot process in all cases, we just start the
+autonegotiation process when U-Boot comes up and that is all. Most
+likely, it will complete by the time the network transfer is
+attempted for the first time. In the worst case, if a transfer is
+attempted before the autonegotiation is complete, just a single
+packet would be lost resulting in a single timeout error, and then
+the transfer would proceed normally. So the time that we would have
+lost unconditionally waiting for the autonegotiation to complete, we
+have to wait only if the file transfer is started immediately after
+reset. We've verified that this works for all the clock
+configurations.
