Added, thanks.

I understand that this patch obsoletes all your previous patches,
i. e. the following messages:

Please confirm.


Technical problems:

* In include/configs/mx1ads.h etc. you have this:

  #define        CFG_HZ                  3686400

  This is BROKEN. CFG_HZ is the number of timer ticks per second.
  You don't want to process more than 3 millions of interrupts per sec.
  Please don't mis-use CFG_HZ for things it was not intended for.


Formal problems:

* Entries for MAKEALL and MAINTAINERS missing. Please submit new patch!

* Would you please keep lists sorted, i.  e.  don't  mix  ARM  boards
  inbetween PowerPC systems, and sort the names in ascending order?

* Please use plain '#' comments in Makefiles etc. Your
	#/*
	#*
	...
	#*
	#*/
  is ugly.

* Please do not add trailing white space
  (board/mx1fs2/memsetup.S, include/configs/mx1ads.h)

* Please do not add trailing empty lines.

* Please don't modify a file if all you change  is deleting an empty line.

* Don't use 3 or more consecutive empty lines.

* Please don't include opject files multiple times (cpu.o in
  cpu/arm920t/Makefile)


Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
