Hi Sandeep,

It should not be a permanent solution. It is need however as long as

a) ARM on U-Boot forces the ABI to be compiled for to be
"-mabi=apcs-gnu" (check cpu/arm*/config.mk) in contrast to the newer
GNUEABI

and

b) your toolchain does not have a libgcc compiled for this ABI version
(true for recent toolchains which use the newer GNUEABI.

This is my take on the situation. I lost track however why a) is the
case. Maybe someone can help my memory here.

Cheers
Detlev
