Even better would be to use mainline u-boot's latest release.

The reason it's in use is no one has found the time to move the
existing machines to a newer u-boot, and test they still work. I
welcome anyone who can make progress in supporting the 2400 and 2500
machines with a newer u-boot tree.

The steps would be:

 1. Get a tree that works on the 2500
 2. Create an openbmc configuration for the NCSI and direct-PHY
systems. Ideally we could use one build with device tree to configure
them differently
 3. Ensure this configuration works on hardware and in our qemu model
 4. Update the tree to use them

Cheers,

Joel
