I have to admit that I did not find the proginal source reference any
more, but my understanding is that this was imported code from another
project, and I see little reason to "fix" it (i. e. making it
incompatible to the original code) if there is not a good reason for
it.

Formfeed characters in the source code are IMHO mostly a matter of
taste - in the editor they don't really hurt, and who of you has been
printing the U-Boot source code in the last decade?

So my recommendation is to just ignore this.  Let's focus on real
problems, or at least real coding style violations.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
