I was under the impression that you resent the patches because you have a CuBox you want to get supported.
Exactly. I'd like to see support for CuBox enter mainline U-Boot. However, there's also a limit to the amount of time I can afford to spend on it (both per week and in total). TBH, I would have hoped the _vendor_ (SolidRun) would take a more active role in this. For that reason I'm now going to evaluate a Wandboard Quad, where more effort seems to get spent on upstreaming (not to mention that the schematics are available, which makes working on board support a lot easier). When I ordered the CuBox Pro, the then-existing Wandboard variants (Solo and DualLite) lacked SATA support, but the Quad meets my requirements.
Naming was the main discussion of this patch set back then, there have been some "???" on the mpp stuff. I suggested several times not to use "mv" as I knew that Marvell PXA also uses "mv" as prefix all over.
The PXA SPI controller is based on different IP. Unfortunately PXA naming is not consitent over SoCs, Dove is also nick-named PXA510 sometimes.
Actually, we are merging Orion SoCs and Armada 370/XP to mach-mvebu - so the best name would be mvebu_spi as the spi controller is also in Armada 370/XP.
You're confusing me even more than I already was. :)
It's probably best to leave this reorganisation to someone else who better knows the relationships between the several SoC families from Marvell.

Uhm, did you forget to send code?
No, I was holding back until I knew whether you still feel comfortable being associated with the patches. I'll send them out now.
I will not likely get back to Dove support on u-boot. I cannot really re-test on Kirkwood and it just takes to long to get feedback. I suggest to remove my Signed-off-by and especially the MAINTAINERS entry.
OK, will do. Sorry you feel that way.
