i understand where you're coming from, and i intend to follow the rules ... after Blackfin in mainline is actually usable. i'm being pragmatic here: since Blackfin literrally has never compiled/linked in the mainline releases, theres no way i could break it even more. delaying these updates to make mainline Blackfin u-boot usable is only that: delay.
Come on, you know damn well it's not acceptable to add tons of new features (including, from the look of it, two new commands) this close to a release.
You should focus on getting the thing to work (why was it merged in the first place if it didn't work, btw?) not try to achieve feature-parity with the out-of-tree code.
There are way too many useless commands in the tree as it is, we don't want even more unreviewed crap sneaking in through the back door.
