Apologies Richard.
I went on to another task and forgot about his.

I have been trying in spare time to make a unit test to demonstrate this 
fault but have not completed that yet. There is no good unit test 
framework so have had to come up with one using techniques I already use 
for other non kernel C projects using googletest/mock. I will post this 
when it works.

The patch for HEAD is attached (I hope this is acceptable).

It is not a good solution but it does prevent the bitflip issue in the 
older uboot.
