When booting a Freescale kernel 3.0.35 on a Wandboard solo, the get_board_rev()
returns 0x62xxx, which is not a value understood by the VPU 
(Video Processing Unit) library in the kernel and causes the video playback to 
fail.

The expected values for get_board_rev are:
0x63xxx: For mx6quad/dual
0x61xxx: For mx6dual-lite/solo

So adjust get_board_rev() accordingly and make it as weak function, so that we
do not need to define it in every mx6 board file.

Changes since v1:
- Avoid extra call to get_cpu_rev()

This is much better than changing Troy's get_cpu_rev(). Thanks :)

But what's about to add this code to

http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git/tree/arch/arm/kernel/setup.c?h=imx_3.0.35_1.1.0#n655

?

Best regards

I am glad you like it :-)

Because I cannot post a patch in the U-boot list to fix an internal
FSL kernel :-)

I can certainly suggest this (and yes, I fully agree that the kernel
should handle the CPU detection without relying at the bootloader at
all), but from a U-boot perspective we cannot really know which kernel
version the user will deploy.

If we want mainline U-boot to work with this particular kernel version
on mx6 solo, then we need to adjust ATAGS as proposed by my patch.

Ok, sounds reasonable, agreed.

Even if someone might complain that this is off-topic here, again ( ;) 
): Do you like to check if the recent _mainline_ kernel wants 
something similar?

It wasn't a complaint from me, but I can assure you that the
offending bit of code that I found (in imx-lib) won't function
against a main-line kernel without some serious re-work.

We use a cpu revision as board revision, and this seems quite perverse.
Anyway, I understand the reasons, and this seems a good way to work
around bugs in other (FSL) code without breaking U-Boot.

Applied to u-boot-imx, thanks.
