Hi Stefano,

but why not change get_cpu_rev to 'const char *' which it actually is?
This is correct. However, I have not noted before that the last introduced get_cpu_rev() in MX31 is an exception in u-boot. For all other processors, it returns a u32 and it is defined as u32 get_cpu_rev(void).
Fabio's patch introduces a variant, because it is defined as const char *get_cpu_rev(void). I propose to change its name (get_cpu_rev_string ?) and add the static attribute, to make clear it is different as the get_cpu_rev() already implemented in u-boot.
Ok, I can change it as per your suggestion.
Will send a patch soon.

Fabio Estevam
