Dear developers,
the attached patch adds LED support for the Cubietruck board.
I found that the support for the onboard leds is missing for sunxi-based boards in the latest Debian unstable and perhaps upstream version of U-Boot. IMHO LEDs are very helpful for headless systems. Perhaps the patch can be helpful somehow.
The code has basically been ported from the U-Boot version maintained at linux-sunxi.org. As in the sunxi version, the blue led is switched on by default.
Kind regards,
Gundolf Kiefer

Thanks for the patches!
If you could submit these patches to u-boot upstream, that would be best; we're trying to minimize the patches that are not already included upstream.
live well, vagrant
