NAK.

I think Mike Frysinger's proposal (see
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/61892/focus=61896
and the rest of the thread) makes perfect sense: the default settings
should be such that the majority of architectures just work as is,
and only the deviating ones need to change the behavior.

Please rework as suggested and resubmit.  Thanks.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
