[U-Boot-Users] [Patch 2/4] U-Boot-V2: ARM: introduce CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATION

Wed May 7 13:55:56 CEST 2008
Introduce CONFIG_SKIP_RELOCATION as alternative define. This may be
desired in some conditions where U-Boot is downloaded directly into SRAM
during NAND/Peripheral download mode and is not expected to be
relocated.
This patch also organizes SKIP_LOWLEVEL_INIT and SKIP_RELOCATION in a
common arm feature dependent section.
