Actually I woner it it makes sense at all to attempt to  support  the
old  (pre-rev.  2 silicon based) hardware at all in newer versions of
U-Boot and Linux. There are only a few boards out in the field, and
those of the customers who are actually doing any work on them will
replace them by new hardware anyway. The others can stick as well with
the existing U-Boot and Linux support.

I vote to support only rev. 2 (and later) silicon in recent versions
of U-Boot and Linux.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

An optimist believes we live in the best world possible; a  pessimist
fears this is true.
