I have found this old post.
Just some my comments.

1. Wolfgang if you see any patches for xilinx fpga and microblaze and I don't reply
that posts for a while, please ping me. I am more focus on other things and not checking
u-boot malling list so often - it will be better soon.

2. This change is caused by misunderstanding of xparameters.h for microblaze/xilinx ppc boards.
If someone wants to use looong xilinx xparameters from EDK/SDK project, not the correct one generated by u-boot bsp,
reach problems like this and wants to rename it.
The reason why I decided several years ago to use u-boot BSP was that new xparameters.h in board contains
just minimum parameters which are important for u-boot. It wasn't and I believe it is unacceptable to
add hundreds line with unimportant macros which are totally unrelated to u-boot.

Thanks,
Michal
