I am glad you like it :-)

Because I cannot post a patch in the U-boot list to fix an internal
FSL kernel :-)

I can certainly suggest this (and yes, I fully agree that the kernel
should handle the CPU detection without relying at the bootloader at
all), but from a U-boot perspective we cannot really know which kernel
version the user will deploy.

If we want mainline U-boot to work with this particular kernel version
on mx6 solo, then we need to adjust ATAGS as proposed by my patch.
