[U-Boot] [PATCH] [v2] powerpc/85xx: move the Fman microcode from ef000000 to eff40000

2012-01-13 Thread Timur Tabi
On some Freescale reference boards for SOCs with Fman devices, the Fman microcode is located at address 0xEF00 in NOR flash. Unfortunately, this address is in the middle of nowhere and makes it difficult to partition flash space for other images. So we change the expected address to
