Thanks for your comments. I was thinking about what's the best way to
approach this need, and last time we discussed similar topic, I was
asked about upstreaming my changes... so here I am doing it.

Fixing it in u-boot-fslc or as a ad-hoc patch will also work for me.

Still - isn't the mainline kernel user expected to be able to use the
HDMI interface of the board?

Nikolay
