Argghhh...  This is not the way things should be done.

I am definitely unhappy here - not so much about the patches, but
about the procedure.

Even as a maintainer you are supposed to post the patches first.
And then _wait_ and give people a chance to review the patches.
And then decide based on the review results.

Shortcutting an ongoing discussion with such a "management decision"
does not match my understanding of how U-Boot development takes
place.  Accepting unreviewed patches because of the powers of a
custodian/maintainer is IMO a strict no-go.
