I hesitate to add this patch, as I'm not convinced that this is a problem that should be addressed in U-Boot. U-Boot seems to work fine on the MIPS systems I can test myself, and Masami Komiya also reported success.
Please explain why you think this is an U-Boot issue, and not instead a problem with the MV kernel?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

: 1. What is the possibility of this being added in the future?
In the near future, the probability is close to zero. In the distant
future, I'll be dead, and posterity can do whatever they like... :-)

Ok, I will solve it in kernel instead.
Please drop patch.
