-Subject: [PATCH] drop configh from tools
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
-
-We need to build u-boot tools without a board configuration for the target.
-fw_env just uses config.h to define the default environment of the created
-image, so it really isn't mandatory.

-Subject: [PATCH] Pass empty CFLAGS on invocation of libfdt/setup.py
-
-When building u-boot tools in cross-build environment CFLAGS environment
-variable set up for target is taken into an account when building code
-for host. Make it empty on invocation of python.
-
-This fixes the following build errors when cross-compiling for xtensa:
-
-  cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-mlongcalls"
-  cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-mauto-litpools"
