I just ran into a problem with current U-Boot on Kilauea and device tree enabled Linux kernel (arch/powerpc). After updating U-Boot the kernel doesn't boot anymore:
=> run net_nfs_fdt Waiting for PHY auto negotiation to complete... done ENET Speed is 1000 Mbps - FULL duplex connection (EMAC0) Using ppc_4xx_eth0 device TFTP from server 10.0.0.152; our IP address is 10.0.0.182 Filename 'kilauea/uImage'.

Before updating U-Boot I am able to boot exactly this kernel/dtb combination without problems:

Any ideas?
