[U-Boot] [PATCH v2] ARM: at91 series: increase size for u-boot and change bootargs
As to more features are added into the u-boot, which cause the u-boot size larger than 0x40000 (256KiB), so increase the size for u-boot through move offset of the u-boot environment. Or else, when execute saveenv command, which will erase the end of the u-boot causing it can not boot up again.
Also, the linux kernel image is bigger than 2MiB, so change the bootcmd as the same time.

I personally prefer to change bootlaoder related stuff also from linux. With this change you can not access the env partition from linux therefore you can never use tools like fw_pritnenv/fw_setenv. Can you please change this to a reasonable configuration. I think current setups will require about 1 sector for bootstrap, 1 or 2 sectors for each env, about 4 to 6 sectors for u-boot, another bunch of sectors for linux and maybe some place to store a configuration blob (think of 'Falcon mode' or FDT).
Best regards

Ok, I will consider this and prepare for the next version. Thanks.
