Yes, It should be 8, also need to change in gic node to 8 CPUs.
No, smp support till now, still I'll change it in next patch version.

recently, I've posted the v2 of u-boot patch.

Correct, As, timer support is added in u-boot, I'll remove these two.

Not, only uart0_pins_a and uart0_pins_b and mmc0_pins_a will be used for now.
As, these are not enabled, I don't see any harm in keeping those here.

Let me know in case you want to remove, I'll do it.
