The at91rm9200dk board already exists with similar code.
I think the chances that it someone will work on this is higher if the code is inside U-Boot than outside U-Boot though.
Not sure about this. If it's there and it works there will be little incentive to change...
At the same time, you are doing some testing for the new code, and for (almost) the same price you could (implement and) test the cleaned up version instead.
BTW: Why not have the AVR32 and AT91 use the same. The PIO peripheral is the same.
It may be a good idea for the future.
However, this is not how it is done today in Linux, and I've tried to minimize changes (especially in the header files) to ease the porting.
Thanks,
