What is a need for this ATAG? Open source Linux Kernel does not have any implementation to support this ATAG. Nor u-boot have any vendor specific ATAGs
NACK, if this is specific to support any custom implementation.

Hi Prafulla,
I was simply trying to mirror what the vendor U-Boot was passing to the vendor kernel flashed on the device. My theory was that by comparing the boot logs of the vendor U-Boot and vendor kernel, with the boot logs of custom U-Boot and vendor kernel, I could make sure that my custom U-Boot was doing the right thing. Including this ATAG allowed my to obtain identical kernel boot logs.
That said, I'm happy to leave this portion out if it is not acceptable. Especially if mainline kernel doesn't recognise that ATAG anyway.
Regards,
