Yes, I'm sorry about this also. I don't like Stephen's change because it changes the meaning of u-boot.bin, and I really thought the CONFIG_OF_CONTROL stuff was pretty good as is. But if Wolfgang or Jerry do like it, then that's fine, we can change things. Other than that, we need to wait until the panic stuff is sorted out. We sort-of have a plan (revert 295d3942, replace with something more like the pre-console panic, and make it the board's responsibility to select which UARTs can be used). I will come up with a new series in the next few days, and we will see where it goes. If Stephen decides he is happy for the moment with pulling it as it originally was (without the 4 panic patches and without the u-boot Makefile change) then I'm fine with that also. We can then untie the two things. But that means that for now if you flash U-Boot without an fdt then you get no message and you will have to RTFM (README.fdt-control) or ask on list.
