Hello Stefan,

the am335x based shc board fails loading u-boot.img in SPL from vfat partition on eMMC card with current HEAD of mainline U-Boot:

U-Boot SPL 2017.01-00294-g0c9e85f (Jan 23 2017 - 11:23:05) SHC MPU reference clock runs at 6 MHz Setting MPU clock to 594 MHz Enabling Spread Spectrum of 18 permille for MPU Trying to boot from MMC2 reading u-boot.img reading u-boot.img

Detected with my weekly tbot tests of U-Boot. An automated git bisect cycle with tbot shows your patch:

$ git bisect visualize commit 8d48c92b45aea91e2a2be90f2ed93677e85526f1 Author: Stefan Brüns stefan.bruens@rwth-aachen.de Date: Sat Dec 17 03:55:10 2016 +0100

fs/fat: simplify get_fatent for FAT12

Instead of shuffling bits from two adjacent 16 bit words, use one 16 bit word with the appropriate byte offset in the buffer.

Reverting this patch, and it works as expected: U-Boot SPL 2017.01-00294-g0c9e85f-dirty (Jan 23 2017 - 12:53:29) SHC MPU reference clock runs at 6 MHz Setting MPU clock to 594 MHz Enabling Spread Spectrum of 18 permille for MPU Trying to boot from MMC2 reading u-boot.img reading u-boot.img

Any ideas what could be wrong here?

Thanks!
