I now have access to a Mackerel board and have verified that
this patch works.
My verification method was to usa a hack; I removed the
SDRAM initialisation portion of head-mackerel.txt and
then booting the resulting zImage from uboot using:
=> bootp
=> go 0x42000000
This is the same method that I used to test the AP4 variant of this change.
Morimoto-san, could you test this by burning an image (without the above
hack) to Flash? I can provide an image or tree if that helps.
