This patch is CCed to you because the MAINTAINERS file
says you are the maintainer of one of these boards.

I post the whole series to the ML (u-boot at lists.denx.de).

Given that you could see only this patch,
I assume you are not a subscriber.


You can still check the whole series at the ML archive:

This patch is here because nobody took action to
convert these boards to Generic Board.

As Tom Rini announced, we are ripping off non-Generic boards.

Yes.

cm4008 and cm41xx are the last boards of KS8695.
Unused files should be removed based on the policy of U-Boot community.


If you want keep them, you (or someone else) must send a patch.
