Hi Otavio, I suspect the Wandboard SDK U-boot is many commits behind the one that is fetched in the current u-boot-imx_2009.08.bb recipe. I've asked about the commit that they used to start with from the freescale git repo, but I haven't received a response yet. The diff is pretty large and contains lots of changes that are not specific to Wandboard.
I based the patch on the diff, only I extracted the necessary changes and left all of the changes that could be attributed to upstream commits. I will break up the patch into a series as you suggested.
