Indeed. And I really hate it to receive patches that merge unrelated
changes into one big unseparatable thing.
And this is why I have to reject this one.

This is OK with me. [1]

No. I reject this. [2] Please do not pollute the Makefile and MAKEALL
(oops, you even forgot to update this one!) with so many different
build targets which differ only in the available RAM size of the
target. There is existing code (in common/memsize.c) to atomatically
detect the available size, so please fix your code and auto-adjust as
needed. This will also make your life easier as a board maintainer
since you need to have only one image per board type, not a different
one for each board configuration.

This is OK with me. [3]
Please feel free to resubmit modifications relating to [1] and [3].
Resubmit [2] after fixing the code.
Best regards,

Defaults are wonderful, just like fire.
