[POWERPC] Xilinx: Update booting-without-of.

Browse source 
This now better describes what the UBoot device tree generator
actually does.  In particular:

1) Nodes have a label derived from the device name, and a node name
derived from a generic version of the device type, e.g. 'ethernet',
'serial', etc.

2) Usage of compound nodes (representing more than one device in the
same IP) which actually works.  This requires having a valid
compatible node, and all the other things that a bus normally has.
I've chosen 'xlnx,compound' as the bus name to describe these compound
nodes.

In addition, I've clarified some of the language relating to how mhs
nodes should be represent in the device tree.

Some IP cores actually implement 2 or more logical devices. In this case,
the device should still describe the whole IP core with a single node
and add a child node for each logical device. The ranges property can
be used to translate from parent IP-core to the registers of each device.
(Note: this makes the assumption that both logical devices have the same
bus binding. If this is not true, then separate nodes should be used for
each logical device). The 'cell-index' property can be used to enumerate
logical devices within an IP core. For example, the following is the
system.mhs entry for the dual ps2 controller found on the ml403 reference
design.
