[U-Boot] [ANN] U-Boot v2014.07 released

Hey all,
I've pushed v2014.07 out to the repository and tarballs should exist soon.
As always, lots of nice little fixes here and there and everywhere. Since I've had a few requests to include some sort of ChangeLog (other than what git spits out), here's what I've come up with:
- Improve support for cryptographic signing within FIT images. - More improvements within DFU support - Improvements within USB - Some important bug fixes within FAT read/write support - I normally want to leave SoC stuff to their respective custodians, but.. Allwinner SoC support has been merged. - The biggest thing that sticks out to me is we've gotten a lot of cleanup in, which is good since we've got a lot of big things planned for the next release.
And I would encourage custodians to follow-up with anything big I've overlooked.
Thanks for the hard work everyone! The merge window is now open until Saturday August 02 2014.

Its not really "big", but this one would be nice in this release as its a clear bug fix for some OMAP3 boards:
ARM: omap: Fix GPMC init for OMAP3 platforms http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/368245/
Perhaps something for a later stable release v2014.07.1?
Thanks, Stefan

You forgot to mention the Kbuild work ...
