<snip>
> Hello Wolfgang,
> 
> This patch adds full support for parameter area relocation on MPC8xx. 
> This is needed if you want to simultaneously use devices that have 
> overlapping parameter areas, such as SCC1/I2C, SCC2/SPI, SCC3/SMC1, 
> SCC4/SMC2 (SCCx should be in Ethernet mode). The details are in 
> doc/README.mpc8xx_upatch.
> 
> Both ROM-based relocation solution and microcode patch are supported. 
> Selection is automatic.
> 
> In addition to that, this patch contains some minor enhancements for 
> MPC8xx SPI driver and "sspi" command, which were kind of difficult to 
> separate (I had to do everything together in order to be able to test
> it).
> 
> Changelog entry
> 
> * Added support for I2C, SPI and SMC parameter area relocation on MPC8xx
