Subject: [U-Boot] [PATCH v3] x86: make LOAD_FROM_32_BIT visible for platforms
Date: Sun,  5 Feb 2017 16:52:00 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170205135200.84524-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> (raw)

This option is useful not only for development, but for the platforms
where U-Boot is run from custom ROM bootloader. For example, Intel
Edison is that board.

Make this option visible that platforms can select it if needed.
