Dear Joakim Tjernlund,

oh, and this does shrink the final u-boot a little, so that's good -mike
Nice, over the last years I have noticed that u-boot has grown a lot. I had to disable a few non essential commands to make it it fit.
Does anyone else share my concern about the rapid growth of u-boot?
I do, and always did. It's mainly features that drive the code size. Some recent changes (gc-sections on PPC) help a bit. And users submitting optimizations like above.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
