Hi,

> omap & sunxi/cortexa8 are both cortex-a8.

good point, I've missed that.

Seems so.

It doesn't, you're right.

That master branch is going to be next release at some point. Just wondering
now if this change could have some impact during upgrade from 19.07.y release.

But so far the best idea :-)

So I've marked this patch as 'Rejected', solved, thanks.
