I would like to add my voice for reverting the patches that break the
support, and work from that point to improve support and eventually
migrate to DT.

Maemo Leste has a lot of Nokia N900 users, and this is blocking us from
moving to mainline u-boot. Is it possible to get the opinion of the
original patch authors on this?

I am set up with a serial module on the Nokia N900, so I can help
provide specific debug info.

Cheers,
Merlijn
