Hi Matthieu,
thanks for these patches. It's brilliant to have all this brought together in
one place so building a recent kernel for the TS boards becomes so easy. I'd
been wanting to do this for years but there was much time required to bring all
the loose ends together.

Maybe I'm missing the point of the platform driver. Is that driver hardcoded
for 16k blocks or is it supposed to auto detect the different hardware options.
If it fails to detect the redboot partitions correctly we aren't going to get
far.
What config variables does "the platform driver" refer to?
Thanks.
