Hi U-boot hackers,
we like to use u-boot as intermediate bootloader to create a raspberry pi based system with fallback partitions. This worked fine in the first tests.
Recently the raspberry pi project switched to Linux Kernel 3.18.x and a device tree enabled kernel. I added fdtfile and stuff to load the dtb (bcm2708-rpi-b.dtb) into my u-boot environment and this works fine.
But we are using a rpi-proto audio chip (something like a hifiberry i2s connected daughterboard) which is enbaled in the Broadcom Bootloader via a Device Tree Overlay.
Is there any support for device tree overlays in u-boot for raspberry pi?

Is anyone working on this?
Thanks in advance Waldemar
