* Patch by Yuli Barcohen, 08 Nov 2004:
Add support for Analogue & Micro Rattler boards. Tested on Rattler8248. * Patch by Andre Renaud, 08 Nov 2004: Fix watchdog support in common/lcd.c * Patch by Marc Leeman, 05 Nov 2003: Enable all 4 PCMBRW buffers for the MPC8245 processor since the CPU bug only affects the XPC8245 processors

+ * The following bug only affects older (XPC8245) processors.

+ *
+ * The effect is:
+ * when transferring X words, the first 32 words are transferred
+ * OK, the next 3 x 32 words are 'old' data (from previous DMA)
+ * while the rest of the X words is xferred fine.
+ *
