Kumar,
This is correct. As the only 8572 board that exists in the u-boot tree is for the Freescale MPC8572DS I didn't query anyone else on possible impact of the change.
Certainly not a problem. Moving the flash address was relatively painless. I just wanted to post in case someone bumps into this issue down the line.
I ran into the same issue on the XPedite5370 which also uses the 8572. I worked around it initially by disabling CONFIG_MP. I was recently working on an 86xx board and it has the same issue as well when CONFIG_NUM_CPUS > 1.
We try and use the same memory layout (which unfortunately has flash at the top of memory) on all our boards so I'll send a patch to fix this issue at some point unless someone beats me too it:)
Best, Peter
