Hey all,
Having not received any feed back at all, I went ahead and did the changes anyway. Everything seems to run and work fine for sunxi and prints proper sizes.
For the other boards, I tried to run a MAKEALL but there where so many random other warnings I can't say for 100% certainty there where no mistakes that crept in.
There cannot possibly be a single warning if you're working from an official U-Boot repo, as warnings are considered failures and thus no patch reaches u-boot/master if it causes a warning.
That might be the theory, but in practice this is simply false. Different toolchains produce different warnings, and not all patches always get test-built on every target (especially on obscure architectures). And since it's false that no warnings exist, that means sometimes even when a patch is test-built, some newly introduced warnings get missed (I got an e-mail pointing out such an occurance just today).
