[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] 16-bit NAND support

[Woodruff, Richard]

Wolfgang,

I just eyed the patch and it didn't seem like there was much size
difference.  Compiled it might be in the order of some bytes, perhaps a
1k or 2k at worst, easy enough to tell.  At run time it will be reading
a page at a time and moving that to memory else where, so the run time
overhead of the couple structure changes probably won't change much
either. 

Is there some bit which worries you?  I didn't notice anything in a
quick look, but perhaps you did.

Regards,
Richard W.
