Using L2 SRAM for this is an implementation detail, and not appropriate  
for a description of the generic TPL infrastructure.  For example, on  
newer QorIQ chips you'd be using CPC (L3) SRAM.

You don't need to mention a dependency on an earlier patch in the same  
patchset (and when you do need to mention a dependency, it should be  
below the --- line so it doesn't go into the git history).  OTOH, you  
do need to mention the dependency on the patch to have a separate  
autoconf.mk.
[Zhang Ying] 
I want to know when the patch that creates a separate autoconf.mk can
be merged?
My patch need to be verified on the basis of it.
