I just noticed today that there is a patch committed [1] in the u-boot-davinci tree (Sandeep Paulraj, the maintainer, has been added to the cc) which does the same as this patch and also predates it. I am sorry: I was unaware of the da850 changes in that tree when I worked on this and other patches. In my defense, the description of that repo is "DaVinci DM3xx/DM6446 U-Boot integration/staging tree." Whereas I had been porting changes from the u-boot-omapl1 tree [2] which is described as the "DA8xx/OMAP-L1xx U-Boot integration/staging tree." Also relevant are the following patches where you have made changes to the u-boot-davinci tree which predate the changes I have submitted for 2010.12: "da850: Enable Davinci EMAC driver" [3] which predates my "[PATCH v6 2/2][NEXT] da850evm: basic MII EMAC support." [4] The changes here are very similar except for the differences resulting from my implementing the davinci_eth_set_mac_addr extraction as requested by Ben Warren (on the CC since I am singling him out). I apologize for being oblivious to the integration efforts in that tree. I would very much like to see more complete da850 support in 2010.12 -- how would you like to proceed? I am happy to withdraw the patches and review/test any that you post in their place.
