cyclic: get rid of cyclic_init()

Currently, we must call cyclic_init() at some point before
cyclic_register() becomes possible. That turns out to be somewhat
awkward, especially with SPL, and has resulted in a watchdog callback
not being registered, thus causing the board to prematurely reset.

We already rely on gd->cyclic reliably being set to NULL by the asm
code that clears all of gd. Now that the cyclic list is a hlist, and
thus an empty list is represented by a NULL head pointer, and struct
cyclic_drv has no other members, we can just as well drop a level of
indirection and put the hlist_head directly in struct
global_data. This doesn't increase the size of struct global_data,
gets rid of an early malloc(), and generates slightly smaller code.

But primarily, this avoids having to call cyclic_init() early; the cyclic
infrastructure is simply ready to register callbacks as soon as we
enter C code.

We can still end up with schedule() being called from asm very early,
so we still need to check that gd itself has been properly initialized
[*], but once it has, gd->cyclic_list is perfectly fine to access, and
will just be an empty list.

As for cyclic_uninit(), it was never really the opposite of
cyclic_init() since it didn't free the struct cyclic_drv nor set
gd->cyclic to NULL. Rename it to cyclic_unregister_all() and use that
in test/, and also insert a call at the end of the board_init_f
sequence so that gd->cyclic_list is a fresh empty list before we enter
board_init_r().

A small piece of ugliness is that I had to add a cast in
cyclic_get_list() to silence a "discards 'volatile' qualifier"
warning, but that is completely equivalent to the existing handling of
the uclass_root_s list_head member.

[*] I'm not really sure where we guarantee that the register used for
gd contains 0 until it gets explicitly initialized, but that must be
the case, otherwise testing gd for being NULL would not make much sense.
