Patch does not apply. I've tried both u-boot.git and u-boot-ppc4xx.git.
Applying ppc4xx: Merge PPC4xx DDR and DDR2 ECC handling
error: patch failed: cpu/ppc4xx/44x_spd_ddr2.c:198
error: cpu/ppc4xx/44x_spd_ddr2.c: patch does not apply
Patch failed at 0001.
After fixing the problem manually I was able to successfully test
your patch on 405EXr and 460EX boards with ECC.
Thanks a lot.
Felix.
