[U-Boot-Users] MPC5200: Moving SDRAM init out of board scope

[Jonas Mark-r50740]

Hello,

I am currently porting U-Boot to a new MPC5200 platform (Total5200). To reduce code duplication I would like to move the Lite5200 / IceCube SDRAM initialization (sdram_start() and initdram()) from board/icecube/icecube.c to cpu/mpc5xxx/sdram.c. So two platforms would use the same code base.

Any objections?

It seems that at least the maintainer of the PM520 board could change his code rather quickly to use this scheme as well.

Regards
Mark

Sounds good to me. We plan to build our own MPC5200 board based on 
IceCube/Lite5200 in the near future and we'll run U-Boot on it. So it will be 
the third board.

Wolfgang, what's your mind?

If it doesn't break existing board support (IceCube, PM520,  TOP5200)
this is OK with me.

Agreed.

Best regards,
