Figuring out how to properly re-use in both cases is something we need
to work towards, for both these cases and the ymodem UART case as
well.  I think we need to first split this series up into:
- - DDR and UART bugfixes (1, 2, 3) which can go in today
- - SPI (4, 5) which needs to be reviewed by the SPI maintainer
- - MMC+SPL+no partition table support bugfix which can go in today
- - SPL rework to be like, and possibly directly re-use omap-common SPL
files (first move to arch/arm/lib, second switch existing callers to
use, third add support for that ymodem loader, etc).

Thanks!
