We will not do that.

Well, that is your decision. But if you chose your place intentionally
outside the community that you should not be surprised if you only
receive pretty limited support from that community either.

No, I disagree. I don't care at all about any out-of-tree ports  that
might  exist  anywhere.  I  will  not  waste  any  thoughts about the
eventual possibility that changes to the  mainline  U-Boot code might
cause problems in such out-of-tree ports. That's not our problem.

...where it could be protected by a similar #ifdef, so I really don't
see where the problem is.
