[U-Boot-Users] [PATCH] Support fot the ML507 Board 1/4

[Michal Simek]

Hi Ricardo,

I read your patches in your weird style. 
These style of patches never go to mainline. You use xilinx generated files which is currently use only with ml300.
For example look at your xparameters.h there are a lot of values which are not used.
If you want to add ml507 to mainline U-BOOT you have to change completely handling style of xilinx board for ppc.
In next U-BOOT release I will clean ancient ml300. I want to remove a lot of xilinx generic files.

100% NACK for these patches.

The size of patches is due to your incorrect design strategy.

Hi List:

 This is my first contribution to u-boot. I have ported u-boot to the
ML507 Board by Xilinx.
http://www.xilinx.com/products/devkits/HW-V5-ML507-UNI-G.htm

This boards includes an FPGA Virtex 5 FX with an embedded PowerPC 440.

The port supports:
    -Virtex 5 ppc440x5
    -XIlinx Interrupt Controller
    -Xilinx I2C Controller (Interrupted mode)
    -Xilinx Uart Lite (simple port)
    -Xilinx LL_TEMA (Interrupted and SGDMA)
    -Save environment on board eeprom
    -DTT support for the ADT sensor on board (new hwmon driver)
    -Dummy I2C driver (for testing purposes)

This patch works against the last commit to the p4xx branch.

I am a researcher of the Universidad Autonoma de Madrid, and this work
has been supported by Q-Technology ( http://qtec.com ) under a
Research Agreement.

Any comment will be very welcomed.

PS: I have divided the patch in four parts for the mailing list
