Its now there.

With toolchain ARM-4.5.2 the following warning is given (building top9000_eval_xe_config).
I had no time to look into this. The warning is not due to rework and shows only with newer
toolchains, I think.

*** make u-boot.bin
macb.c: In function ???macb_write_hwaddr???:
macb.c:525:2: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict-aliasing rules

at91sam9260-ek builds but throws a few more warnings in the dataflash_spi driver.
Please also see my post titled
"[U-Boot] ATMEL atmel_dataflash_spi.c - work at hand - can someone do it ?"

Maybe you can look into that :)

Best Regards,

Reinhard
