Thanks for your work on this.

I see the "untested" word above which makes me think we should test
both Big and Little boot modes on r8a7790. The default "Big" mode
where CA15 is used usually gets a lot of attention, but little mode
with CA7 boot should also work with the same kernel image.

Cheers,
