Hi Wolfgang, Hi Stefan,
thanks for your comments. I tried to consider them in my updated patch
series. As a consequence of the lists size limit (40k) and our little
discussion on irc I banned cogito from my system an started with plain
git which seems to be slightly more powerful:-)
To fool the list's size limit I did two things: first I split the huge patch (3/3)
into three single patches. Even they do not really make sense without
the others, they will not break U-Boot's buildsystem at any time.
The second very cool thing is the very powerful git option for creating
patch that contain 1:1 copies of existing files. The PMC440 board
uses sequoia's sdram.c and sdram.h. Together these two files would
explode the 40k size limit. So it's a good idea to generate patch by calling:
format-patch -5 -C -C -n
or (which has the same effect):
format-patch -5 -C --find-copies-harder -n
This is how the patch summary looks like in this case:
board/{amcc/sequoia => esd/pmc440}/Makefile | 4 +-
board/{amcc/sequoia => esd/pmc440}/config.mk | 0
board/{amcc/sequoia => esd/pmc440}/init.S | 16 +-
.../sequoia/sequoia.c => esd/pmc440/pmc440.c} | 512 +++++++++++++++-----
board/esd/pmc440/pmc440.h | 148 ++++++
board/{amcc/sequoia => esd/pmc440}/sdram.c | 0
board/{amcc/sequoia => esd/pmc440}/sdram.h | 0
board/{amcc/sequoia => esd/pmc440}/u-boot-nand.lds | 0

Please notice that the following fife patches replace all of my previous three
patches. They are generated against Stefan's ppc4xx/for-1.3.1 brach because
of the 4xx DCACHE rework.
