Hi Gregory,

Thanks for following up.

Yes I owe a v2. I was actually waiting to see Jan's series applied
before sending my additions which build upon it. I'm traveling right now
so it'll probably be at least a week before I'm able to send the next
iteration.

Last I saw there was some comments from Boris on v2 of that series that
needed addressing. Not sure if Jan has time to look at them. If not I
can have a go when I get back.

Will do.

Yes that's fine. I'm now doing some work on and Armada-38x platform and
I realize that that also has the narrower DDR interface (as does the 375
I believe). I was planning on using that as the compatible string since
it's much better known than the integrated switch asic + CPU I've been
working with.
