[PATCH] ARM U-Boot BSS zeroing


From: Leif Lindholm
Subject: [PATCH] ARM U-Boot BSS zeroing
Date: Mon, 13 May 2013 15:37:32 +0000
User-agent: Mutt/1.5.20 (2009-06-14)

The import into the collaborative branch discarded the call to
get_real_bss_start before starting the BSS zeroing operation.

While get_real_bss_start might have been a bit of an ugly hack,
simply discarding it means that we now end up doing unaligned
STR operations, and any platform with MMU disabled fails to boot.

The attached patch prepends a bytewise zeroing loop until
word-aligned, and then continue as before.
