 I have tested these changes on the hawkboard. It requires setting up
 of the gd and bd pointers in the spl for this to work with the
 libcommon changes, which were not needed up until now in my spl. I
 will send a patch to fix this. Will also test the rest of your
 patchset on the board during the weekend.

 Btw, i had quite a substantial increase in the spl image size with
 these additions with a 4.5 based toolchain(will provide exact
 toolchain details and size difference tonight). Building with a 4.6
 based toolchain got the size increase down by quite a bit. Although i
 don't have any size restrictions with spl on my board, this could be
 a problem on boards which have these restrictions with toolchains
 before 4.6.
