MC1322x + OpenOCD

One of the Big Tasks in the Eclipse+MC1322x project is that we need to support a JTAG protocol converter. Since the Segger JLink comes with the Freescale DSK this seems like a reasonable choice. (Tho' I might investigate an FTDI-based protocol converter, time permitting.)

I have made significant progress fixing the OpenOCD Jlink code, so that it works with the MC1322x. Since I'm new to the whole ARM world I don't quite know how to submit my patches. I'll post more when I succeed.

For those who don't know, OpenOCD works as a GDBServer. This allows the GDB (running in Eclipse) to connect to it's target on a chain like this: Eclipse->GDB->GDBServer->Jlink->MC1322x. With my patches I am able to reset, halt, resume, and view memory. I have not yet tackled the problem of writing to the MC1322x's serial flash.
