Hmm. I had hoped that the author of ff.c would accept this patch
upstream, so we could pick up a later upstream version that included
this patch. However, it seems the author of ff.c has a policy of not
accepting outside contributions:

(That's a link to the author's reply to my patch, on the forum system
associated with his/her SW)
I wonder how much of a liability incorporating ff.c into U-Boot will be,
if we can't ever get any fixes merged upstream. Perhaps we just fork it,
although I had hoped we'd be able to keep picking up new versions.
