Hi,
Recently an eagle-eyed tester pointed out to me that the build time reported in my u-boot build did not match the file timestamp on the server it was stored on. This is because at $dayjob we have a build farm with times set to UTC while the storage server was displaying the local time. In reality the times were the same but the timezones were not and there is no indication in the u-boot version about how to interpret the time. This is my attempt to address the issue by defining U_BOOT_TZ along side U_BOOT_TIME and U_BOOT_DATE. I've kept the TZ portion separate because I thought there might some push pack on changing the version string. For my purposes I can display the TZ separately as long as it is defined by the build process. I've also elected to use %Z instead of %z as I feel that the timezone name is more friendly but that's just a personal preference so I wouldn't object to switching to the numeric representation if others feel strongly.
