Sorry for the format  of my answer (it is just copy paste from archive)

because I don't received the U-Boot mails on my @foss.st.com mailbo

since yesterday.


I think about migration but is difficult to don't break the existing behaviour in kconfig

CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS and CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS_DETECT are define as 'int'

but can be absent => 2 new config CONFIG_USE need to be added

CONFIG_USE_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS

CONFIG_USE_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS_DETECT


and I don't fully understood the mix between the 2 options and CFI_MAX_FLASH_BANKS

in some part of code I think CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS should be replaced by CFI_MAX_FLASH_BANKS

to avoid to define CONFIG_SYS_MAX_FLASH_BANKS = cfi_flash_num_flash_banks (as it is not possible in Kconfig)


=> too huge task just to solve compilation issues.


and I also think to use CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(MTD_SUPPORT)

but it not possible because today

- CONFIG_SPL_MTD_SUPPORT exist

- CONFIG_MTD_SUPPORT don't exit ( test on $(mtd-y) in Makefile)


=> the creation of this config is a huge task just to solve compilation issue.
