This doesn't make any difference.  Read more carefully, and read to
the end.  Pay special attention to the part here:

	U-Boot expects to see a virgin CPU, i. e. the CPU state must
	match what you see if the processor starts executing the first
	instructions when it comes out of reset. If you want to start
	U-Boot from another boot loader, you must disable a lot of
	code ...



Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
