[U-Boot] ep93xx port status

[Matthias Kaehlcke <matthias@kaehlcke.net>]

Hi Martin,

the main issue the ep93xx port had was relocation. I spent some time
trying to fix it but got stuck digging in the dark as my boards don't
expose the JTAG interface. besides that there where no issues known to
me, it was possible to boot from NOR or via tftp and start Linux

I used the port on boards based on the edb9301 and edb9307a
designs. People reported having it working on other boards of the
edb93xx family, i recall the edb9315a was one of them

I hope this information is useful for you. Although I don't use the
platform anymore I would love to see the port resucitate :)

Best regards

Matthias
