Yes they should not be there - fixed in v6.

Yes but most of those changes should be dropped. I did a partial sync
a few months back but if you recall there were still differences. Is
this something the Tegra maintainer might look at?

I don't want to immortalise those differences in a separate U-Boot
file when really we should just get rid of them.
