perusing the Makefiles, pretty straightforward but, on occasion, i
run into something like this (from
arch/arm/cpu/armv7/omap-common/Makefile):
... snip ...
SOBJS := reset.o
COBJS := timer.o
COBJS += utils.o
... snip ...
the thing is, all of the above are .c files, including reset.c. is
there something deliberate about using SOBJS to refer to an object
file whose source file isn't actually assembler? just curious.

It means commit d417d1db5f9092d125ddea882ced77eaa5f3d236 was not
reviewed thoroughly enough. :)

i can submit a patch for that unless someone is all over that
already. i assume the fix would simply involve assigning reset.o to
COBJS (rather than SOBS) in the relevant Makefiles, yes?

Yes -- and checking that the resulting U-Boot still builds and
works. :)
