I think this should not report bug, it should for compatible with old 
kernel (only for Linux 2.6.39 released on www.at91.com/linux4sam).

This patch can not be applied based on u-boot master branch or else on 
u-boot-atmel master branch.

Please re-generate this patch based on u-boot master branch or 
u-boot-atmel master branch.

system_serial_low = readl(&gpbr->reg[2]);
system_rev = readl(&gpbr->reg[3]);
