[U-Boot] [PATCH 37/37] rockchip: Update the README

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Thu Jan 14 16:58:20 CET 2016


GPIO, I2C, LCD and HDMI are now implemented. We have more than one PMIC.
There is an implementation to run the CPU at full speed although it does
not seem to make much difference.

Update the README to cover recent developments.
