This patchset adds support for TPL(Tertiary Program Loader) and P1021MDS board. It is a rework of patchset at http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2010-December/082881.html, addresses the comments from the list and is based on the top of the tree. It needs to be applied after patch http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2011-January/086346.html and patch http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2011-January/086524.html
I think these patches are incorrectly split.
I think the intent was to split the arch-neutral stuff from the 85xx stuff from the board stuff -- you'd rather they be all bunched together?
[PATCH 1/6] Introduce the Tertiary Program loader
This patch adds stuff to the Makefile, which would result in errors if used, as the referenced directories don't exist yet.
Lots of patches add features, disabled by default, that require CPU or board code to provide things, that would cause errors if the feature were enabled on a board otherwise.
I don't think it's even possible to add an empty directory with git.
[PATCH 2/6] powerpc/85xx: add TPL support
This patch creates unused files, like arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/u-boot-tpl.lds
It gets used in later in the patchset, when a board with tpl is added.
