[U-Boot] Save flash from U-Boot

Dear Wolfgang Denk,

Unfortunately the bootloader isn't modified by the ISP, only the main firmware. If a knew that the main firmware was also covered by GPL, I would ask them but I am sure they would tell me nothing, they don't tell even my VOIP password.

The easiest way (at least in theory) is to ask your provider for the source code.  AsU-Boot is covered by GPL, they must provide you the full source code when you request it.
