[U-Boot-Users] [patch] MPC8266 March-C memory test

[Rune Torgersen]

The slow version is written in C and should work on any platfrom.
The fast version might work. Don't know if the 8xx is FPU compatible with
the 82xx

Should this also be portable to the 8xx[F]ADS platforms?

I am currently debugging UPM/memory problems, and a real memory test
would be invaluable :)
