Please restrict your line length to some 70 characters. Thanks.

It should be just a single patch, unless you break  it  into  locally
idenpendent  parts,  for  example  first adding general board support
(complete and working in itself), and then in a second patch  enhance
the general board support by support to boot from NAND.

Best regards,
