Rejected.
This is not a problem in U-Boot, but in your Linux driver. The rule is that U-boot will initialize ONLY that hardware which it uses itself, and it may even de-initialize the hardare after use. A Linux driver must not make any assumptions about initialization of the hardware done or not doen in the boot loader. It is resposnible to initialize the hardware to a usable state itself.
OK. We will do it differently.
- Timings Modifications for SPI DataFlash accesses.
- It fixes a NandFlash Detection problem
Please split the patch and resubmit only the last 2 items.
Done.
In general, please don't combine unrelated modifications in a single patch.
Sorry, but I cannot parse this message.
Will you please stick to standard quoting rules?
In this message the text that looks as if it came from you was actually my old message, and I am not sure what you typed new, it anything???
Best regards,
