Dear Kumar,

This is how FSL U-Boots configure the cfg window, and I'm trying to
retain the compatibility. Anyway, now Linux maps only the first 4kB
of that area, so we don't actually care about this, but dts is still
correct for older u-boots. Newer U-Boots might want to correct this
value if they want to use other cfg window setup...

I'd rather not pollute the .dts with this since I don't believe the
open source u-boot supports PCIe on 83xx.

What exactly do you mean by "open source u-boot"?  You  don't  really
mean that there are propriatary (closed source) versions of U-Boot in
Freescale,  or  are  you?  I  iknow that you know that it's GPL, so I
guess that was just an unlucky phrase?

I meant the official u-boot from denx.de vs the one FSL ships w/its boards & BSPs. The BSP u-boot has modifications that don't exist in the denx.de u-boot (as the quality of the code is not up to open source standards).

That is all I meant.

My statement was to convey that the kernel.org kernel should only worry itself with the denx.de u-boot (w/regards to compatibility).
