When defined CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE, there will be some compilation errors:

./common/env_nowhere.o: In function `env_relocate_spec':
./common/env_nowhere.c:38: multiple definition of `env_relocate_spec'
./common/env_flash.o: ./common/env_flash.c:326: first defined here
./common/env_nowhere.o: In function `env_get_char_spec':
./common/env_nowhere.c:42: multiple definition of `env_get_char_spec'
./common/env_flash.o:./common/env_flash.c:78: first defined here
./common/env_nowhere.o: In function `env_init':
./common/env_nowhere.c:51: multiple definition of `env_init'
./common/env_flash.o:./common/env_flash.c:237: first defined here
make[1]: *** [./common/libcommon.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `./common'
make: *** [./common/libcommon.o] Error 2

There will be a confict if defined CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE and
CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH.

This doesn't make any sense.  How can the environment be nowhere *and*
also in flash, at the same time?

[Liu Gang-B34182] The environment cannot be nowhere *and* also in flash at the same time! So we should not
re-defined CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH if the CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE has been defined. But the code will still define
CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_FLASH if the CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE has been defined. This will cause a compilation error
described in this patch.

The Subject: says this affects "powerpc/env".  Is this really correct?
Are _all_ Power architecture systems affected?  I don't think so.

If your comment was correct, how comes you change configs/corenet_ds.h
only?

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
