Okay, this one with the env in SPI NOR is fixed. Its a problem with
your PR debug printf macro. Please change it this way:

-#define PR(fmt, ...) \
-        fprintf(stderr, "DEBUG: %s:%d:%s(): " fmt" \n", \
+#define PR(fmt, ...)                                    \
+        printf("DEBUG: %s:%d:%s(): " fmt" \n", \

With this change, I can successfully boot with SPI NOR environment
on my board. I will do some further tests with your driver next
week and will get back to you with the results. Please keep me in
the loop, if you have updates on the driver.

Thanks,
Stefan
