Hi Krzysztof, sorry for the late reply. My mail client had an issue, and that's�
also the reason why I missed some of your comments before. Anyway, thanks for �
the comments. Ccorstone500 is currently in maintainance mode, and mostly used �
internally nowadays. I don't  expect to see any corstone500 variance in the �
future. We just wanted to upstream few remaing patches on u-boot and kernel so �
that we don't need to keep rebasing the out-of-tree patches for never version �
upgrades. Also corstone500 normally uses device-tree in u-boot, however as you�
know we need to first upstream kernel device tree to be able upstream to u-boot�
device tree. Long story short, let me build this and test it throughly, to make�
sure everything is passing and make sure all your comments are addressed. Sorry�
for inconvience.�
  �
Cheers,�
Emek�
