[U-Boot-Users] RE: [PATCH] Enable device and console for ARM.

Mainly to make the bdinfo command show the proper output.  In general it
seems like the right thing to do...being consistent should make porting code
easier.  I don't know the history, but it sort of feels like the other
global is on the way to being deprecated.

I also did a somewhat un-needed move of the #ifdef for CONFIG_VFD closer to
the devices_init().  From the looks of the code the drv_vfd_init() should be
moved into devices_init() where other LCD/video pieces are initialized.
Closer seemed the next best to being in the proper spot.

Regards,

Richard W.

Why do you initialize bi_baudrate? Is there any place where  this  is
used on ARM systems?
