I wonder why do we need this whole spl thing in the first place (well, surely I know what they are used for but why do we need a separate entity for this)? Isn't it just the same U-Boot in, well, very special configuration (minimal set of drivers, no shell, etc)? Why do we need a whole shadow tree at spl/ instead of just providing the _configuration_? Am I missing something? Aneesh, what's the state of your patches? I'm especially interrested in OMAP3 (AM3517) support. Maybe I will be able to help you. Regards, Ilya.
