Please mind the hints: "overwrit" is a typo. You meant "overwrite", and Mike just explained that "override" is even more appropriate here. > Makefile by the arch_config.mk files.

Please fix the comment. In git history, there will be no "following one" patch, and here you did not post one either. If you don't have it ready yet, then please use a description of what it will do. And "we will be able to have full control to have a functions embedded into u-boot" makes no sense. Either it is "a function" (singular), or it is "functions" (plural, without "a"). But what do you want to tell us? "have functions embedded into U-Boot"? We do this all the time by linking them in - we already have full control over it (except that it's not working as expected sometimes), and your patch does not really change anything of this. You wrote: "gcc does not provide necessarely cored functions". Sorry, but I have no idea what you are talking about here. What is a "cored function"?
