There are actually three parts to this storey:
Thisi s the original patch series, which I applied to a local test
branch with the intention to pull into mainline:
10/04 Anton Staaf [U-Boot] [PATCH v2 0/7] Add cache line alignment support
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/111026
Then I noticed that this broke all PPC4xx boards, and asked Stefan to
fix this problem. Stefan did:
10/07 Stefan Roese [PATCH 1/2] ppc: Include <asm/cache.h> in common.h
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/111482
When PPC was building again, I tested it on ARM (which I assumed was
OK, given that this was Anton's primary architecture). That was when
I finally gave up, see
