I don't like to have yet another implementation of runtime hardware
configuration.

My recommendation would be to use a device tree to configure U-Boot to
your needs.

If you don't want to go that far yet, then please use the mechanisms
we discussed previously, i. e. please see thread "Add simple hwconfig
infrastructure" at
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/58771/focus=58774


Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
