New boards are coming all the time, for example
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/376782/

The problem is this series causes big conflicts with such patches.

Because this series was reviewed, acked or tested by some ARM-SoC maintainers,
I think this should go directly into u-boot/master asap along with
some prerequisites.

What do you think? Should we wait for Albert's review?



Best Regards
Masahiro Yamada
