Possibly nothing -- I'm reporting it because there have been other
mailing list thread with the same error message, sometimes without a
clear resolution:
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2012-February/117009.html
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2010-November/082122.html
I don't know enough about the linker or *.map file to understand the
root cause of the error message. I can only report my observations and
suggest that if somebody else hits the same problem they should try
using a newer toolchain. In my case it fixed the problem.
I don't need anybody to take any action on this, so feel free to
disregard if this report is not interesting. I have no support through
Marvell but I thought it was appropriate to share my results with this
mailing list.
