Hi there,
So I'm cleaning my new 834x board in the time period of just two days.
There's a commit with a bunch of 834x related fixes which totally broke
the board port.
I understand that the main code is volatile, but it seems there's a
blatant
disregard of keeping up a minimum of backwards compatibility.
If someone changes code that's supporting a bunch of board ports, please
put in some default macros to ensure past behaviour is preserved.
I.e. in this case the CONFIG_MPC8349 & CFG_FLASH_SIZE could have easily
been defined with the defaults values for the non updated board ports to
continue working.
Please don't make our lives harder than they are.
/me steps down the soapbox.
Regards
Pantelis
