This modification is part of the submitted modifications necessary to support the IBM PPC405 family. This submission was reviewed by Thomas Doerfler <Thomas.Doerfler@imd-systems.de> who ensured it did not negatively impact the ppc403 BSPs. The submission and tracking process was captured as PR50. * ppc403/console/console405.c ppc403/tty_drv/.cvsignore, ppc403/tty_drv/Makefile.am, ppc403/tty_drv/tty_drv.c, ppc403/tty_drv/tty_drv.h: New files. * Makefile.am, README, configure.ac, old_exception_processing/cpu.c, old_exception_processing/cpu.h, ppc403/Makefile.am, ppc403/clock/clock.c, ppc403/console/Makefile.am, ppc403/console/console.c, ppc403/ictrl/ictrl.c, ppc403/ictrl/ictrl.h, ppc403/timer/timer.c: Modified.

Since these routines can differ amongst different members
of the PowerPC family, an entry per CPU type is provided.
-Initially, (4/December/1995), only the PPC403 was supported.
At this time, support is included for the following PowerPC
-family members:
+family members using the new exception processing model:
+ mpc505
+ + mpc6xx
+ mpc750
- + mpc821
+ + mpc821
+ + mpc823 (uses mpc821 directory)
+ + mpc850 (uses mpc860 directory)
+ mpc860
- + ppc403
+ mpc8260
+The following PowerPC family members are supported but
+still use the old exception processing model:
+
+ + ppc403
+ + ppc405 (uses ppc403 directory)
+ + ppc6xx (no libcpu support)
+
Note that because of similarities in various family members,
the mpc823 should be able to use the mpc821 code and the
mpc850 should be able to use the mpc850 code.
