These two options above do not seem right, they certainly can make use of some
unification. But that's for another patch.

As Fabio Estevan already mentioned, the BOOTDELAY is definitely an unnecessary change which I'll leave out. Fabio further complained about a missing commit history. I can see the point, but the configurations were elaborated directly through the uboot environment, and thus commited altogether. They were necessary, since the before include/configs/m28evk.h was definitely not working well with the m28evk board. Testing it, and with a huge help of Marek, I came to present this solution, and will soon post a v2 of it.

As Marek explained me personally, his comment here was related to the duplicate setting of the LOADADDR. My patch does not address this issue.

I suspect the addmtd should be called unconditionally for every boot type
(mmc_nfs...net_nand).

I can't currently see her which conditional case under which addmtd is running. I'll double check it for a v2. Thank you.
