Sure, I'm looking into the changes and will have a new series with the 
reworked patches in the next couple of days. The warnings really 
highlighted additional cleanup on mvebu booting and defaults in general 
which I'm taking a look at.

I'm not too familiar with the multi-target building, but have read up on 
and am currently using the buildman tool with arm and aarch64 toolsets, 
and building the entire mvebu target set (21 boards currently). Is this 
the best way to do the testing and building across multiple boards or is 
there a different way you'd like the testing to be done in the end?

Somewhat offtopic, what's the best location to which wiki issues should 
be reported? The page on Patches [1] still describes the old MAKEALL 
script. I hadn't found the script originally so skipped that step since 
it wasn't possible. This time, in digging further in source history I 
found the commit that removed it and referenced buildman. It would be 
useful for new contributors to update the wiki with a pointer to 
buildman if that's the desired replacement tool.
