kbuild: use $(src) instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for source directory

Kbuild conventionally uses $(obj)/ for generated files, and $(src)/ for
checked-in source files. It is merely a convention without any functional
difference. In fact, $(obj) and $(src) are exactly the same, as defined
in scripts/Makefile.build:

src := $(obj)

When the kernel is built in a separate output directory, $(src) does
not accurately reflect the source directory location. While Kbuild
resolves this discrepancy by specifying VPATH=$(srctree) to search for
source files, it does not cover all cases. For example, when adding a
header search path for local headers, -I$(srctree)/$(src) is typically
passed to the compiler.

This introduces inconsistency between upstream and downstream Makefiles
because $(src) is used instead of $(srctree)/$(src) for the latter.

To address this inconsistency, this commit changes the semantics of
$(src) so that it always points to the directory in the source tree.

Going forward, the variables used in Makefiles will have the following
meanings:

$(obj) - directory in the object tree
$(src) - directory in the source tree (changed by this commit)
$(objtree) - the top of the kernel object tree
$(srctree) - the top of the kernel source tree

Consequently, $(srctree)/$(src) in upstream Makefiles need to be replaced
with $(src).

powerpc: Remove Xilinx PPC405/PPC440 support

The latest Xilinx design tools called ISE and EDK has been released in
October 2013. New tool doesn't support any PPC405/PPC440 new designs.
These platforms are no longer supported and tested.

PowerPC 405/440 port is orphan from 2013 by
commit cdeb89943bfc ("MAINTAINERS: Fix incorrect status tag") and
commit 19624236cce1 ("MAINTAINERS: Update Grant's email address and maintainership")
that's why it is time to remove the support fot these platforms.

powerpc/dts: Build virtex dtbs

I wanted to test the virtex440-ml507 qemu machine and found that the
dtb for it was not built.

All powerpc dtbs are only built when CONFIG_OF_ALL_DTBS is set which
depend on COMPILE_TEST.

This patch enables building of the virtex dtbs when
CONFIG_XILINX_VIRTEX440_GENERIC_BOARD is enabled.

powerpc: enable building all dtbs

Enable the 'dtbs' target for powerpc. This allows building all the dts
files in arch/powerpc/boot/dts/ when COMPILE_TEST and OF_ALL_DTBS are
enabled.

powerpc: build .dtb files in dts directory

Align powerpc with other architectures which build the dtb files in the
same directory as the dts files. This is also in line with most other
build targets which are located in the same directory as the source.
This move will help enable the 'dtbs' target which builds all the dtbs
regardless of kernel config.

This transition could break some scripts if they expect dtb files in the
old location.
