Oops, yes, I see.

Correct.

Well, bitrev reverses the bits; not really applicable here.  But you're right, a
shift would be better for clarity.

Sure, I'd be open to that.

This does not appear to be the case.  Unless I'm mistaken, memcpy() will be in
either lib/libgeneric.o (lib/string.c) or arch/arm/lib/libarm.o
(arch/arm/lib/memcpy.S) - depending on CONFIG_USE_ARCH_MEMCPY - but in neither
case will it be in common/libcommon.o.

Well, palmtreo680 is a special case because its nand_boot() resumes loading
u-boot where the IPL left off.  IOW, the IPL has already loaded a portion of
u-boot, whereas a generic nand_boot() will want to load the entire image.

I'd be willing to help with pxa spl code, but that might be difficult without
hardware to test on, no?

Ah yes.  And I'm finding some other clean-ups in the config file.

Thanks again Marek,
