Hi,
I found out that my Beaglebone didn't boot after:
https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/commit/13dd6665ed18f72380ca596931d609bc108d...
I digged out the reason that this patch makes devnum a local variable, and it ends up shadowed by other code that sets devnum as a env variable.
For example to boot on the beaglebone I had to remove the setenv as in the patch below.
This only fixes for my board. Many other will likely have regressions.
Fixing it for all boards in a reliable way I think is very complex, unless the strategy is to wait for board maintainers to fix it as they need it, but I wonder how many latent bugs this will create for corner boot cases.
Maybe this change is not worth it?
Thanks, Nuno
I've checked other usages here and only the TI case looks to have been a problem. I reworded the commit message as well.
Applied to u-boot/master, thanks!
