This patchset ports the SPL framework to powerpc. Its based on the SPL generalization lately done by Tom Rini. The patches is based on the current "master" branch.
Additionally, a new MPC5200 board port is included, the a3m071 board port. This board port uses this SPL framework mainly to speed up booting into the OS (Linux of course). Detection of Linux vs. U-Boot booting is done here by checking the environment variable "boot_os". If "boot_os" is set to "yes", then the OS (Linux) is booted. Otherwise the "real" U-Boot is booted.
Tom, what do you think? I would really like to get this included now. Would you prefer if I would push this patch series into a git repo where you could pull from?
Andy, can you comment on this series as well? I'm happy to pull it in from patchwork, just want one more set of eyes on it. Thanks!
