This patch adapts the bootm command so that it can use an existing atags command
set up by a previous bootloader. If the environment variable "atagaddr" is unset,
bootm behaves as normal. If "atagaddr" is set, bootm will use atags address from
environment variable and also append new boot args (if specified in u-boot). For
example, if a previous boot loader already set up the atags struct at 0x80000100:

setenv atagaddr 0x80000100; bootm 0x80008000

no space before the "("

rather than duplicating the same list in multiple places, why not setup a 
local define in this file and then use that everywhere else.

I will add local define CONFIG_ANY_TAG to bootm.c

+#if defined (CONFIG_SETUP_MEMORY_TAGS) || \
+    defined (CONFIG_CMDLINE_TAG) || \
+    defined (CONFIG_INITRD_TAG) || \
+    defined (CONFIG_SERIAL_TAG) || \
+    defined (CONFIG_REVISION_TAG)
+#define CONFIG_ANY_TAG
+#endif
