I would think the more important feature is that IIC support is added.
I also wouldn't skip the fact that the OS independent code has changes as
well.
There are also a lot of tab to spaces conversions, that hide the real
changes.

It would be up to Wolfgang if he wants the stuff redone, but I would like
to see a more complete change log. like

CHANGELOG:
Patch by Sean Chang, 28 Jun 2004:
  Updates to Virtex-II Pro/ml300 board
  OS independent code to Xilinx EDK 6.2
  Added IIC support (with non-standard environment functions)
  Add support for ml300 board to read out its environment
  information stored on the EEPROM.
  Convert Xilinx style environment vars to U-boot style vars.

The non-standard env stuff should really be moved to a separate file so
people can use just the IIC support without pulling that garbage in.

The whole xparameters.h file is really annoying. It makes the IPIF code
impossible to use on more than one board type without a recompile. That
may be OK for U-boot but it is horrible in the Linux kernel.

These things really need some ()'s.
+#define XIIC_CR_REG_OFFSET   0x00+XIIC_REG_OFFSET   /* Control Register   */
