BOOTFLAG_COLD and BOOTFLAG_WARM have identical definitions for every PowerPC board, so share a common definition.

It looks like there are only a few boards (5) that use the warm/cold boot concept, maybe we should remove this largely unused feature? Or at least remove it for most CPU types? Is anyone out there using it?
I added this with the very first versions of PPCBoot, more than a decade ago. I've never seen it really used in the code.
I vote for removing it.
Me too:

Sounds good, I'll resubmit. Getting rid of the BOOTFLAG_* defines will make bd->bi_bootflags unused. What's the policy on modifying the bd_info structure? Leave an unused bi_bootflags field to prevent breakage of OSes?
Best, Peter
