Freescale BSP is for customer who needs the out-of-box experience. It's better tested, but doesn't update very frequently. I would suggest the
customer to use the upstream u-boot, if they decide to use latest
upstream kernel.


The upstream u-boot did however not support PCI Express, which the
latest Freescale kernel did.

So it was a chicken-egg problem experience for people wanting to test
both the latest Freescale kernel as well as Antov's work to bring the
PCI Express support upstream.

Thanks Antov et al,

Please gripe at your Freescale contacts about getting code into mainline/upstream kernel.

(The more they hear it from customers the more importance it will get. The team I work on at Freescale can focus on only so much and the other groups need to hear that customers want code in mainline.)

And thanks Anton for cleaning all this up and getting it in a state that is acceptable :)
