This is not good: we want defconfig to explicitly state which U-Boot
and kernel versions they use. Imagine that in 3 months time, the U-Boot
package gets updated to use 2015.11 by default, and that it doesn't
work on Zedboard: your defconfig is broken. Also your patch may no
longer apply.

While there is certainly some variation that will occur on the
compiler/C library version, we really would like to keep the U-Boot and
kernel versions explicit.

So instead of this change, can you change to point to the 2015.07
U-Boot tarball?

Thanks!
