Hello Wolfgang,

Yes, this is what I intended to implement, sorry for not being
more clear. The pesdo-code is like this:
int do_bootm_vxworks(bootm_headers_t *images)
{
if (images->ft_addr)
do_bootvx_fdt(images);
else
do_bootvx(NULL, 0, 0, NULL);
}
So 'bootm' works with new versions of VxWorks if device tree blob
is provided, otherwise it falls back to 'bootvx'.
The original idea was to separate 'bootvx' from 'bootm' entirely,
but I am not sure how many users out there that depend on the old
behavior, so I am inclined to keep it and not break anyone.
Could you help review the patches ? Thank you very much.
Miao
