Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH 5/8] arm: Add boottime support for the ARM architecture

Dear Lee Jones,

In message <1353422034-28107-6-git-send-email-lee.jones@linaro.org> you wrote:

I implicitly mentioned this before, here it comes clear again:

I dislike the idea of adding such infrastructure in an archittecture
dependent way, knowing from day one that we cannot use this as is for
other architectures, and that the mechanism being used is even going
to go away for this architecutre, too.

Please come up with a solution that works for all architectures
instead.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
