[U-Boot-Users] lib_arm/board.c calls eth_init() for smc91111...why?

[Paul Ruhland]

I noticed when my board booted with the latest CVS there was an unusually long 
delay (3-4 seconds) before the prompt came up.  I initially thought it had 
hung.  Turns out a call to 'eth_init()' was recently added in 
'lib_arm/board.c'.  Since 'eth_init()' is called from 'Net_Loop()' why do we 
need the call in board.c?  It adds quite a large delay to the bootup time 
that I think is unnecessary.
