The sunXi arm64 build has overflown, leading to the main U-boot binary
overwriting the environment when flashing the new image, or even worse,
overwriting itself when we're calling saveenv.

Disable this command that is not critical until we can adress the issue
properly.

Is that meant to solve issues with 32 bit boards as well? Or shall we
use "ARCH_SUNXI && ARM64" here?

In case including 32-bit is intentional, this is:

for [PATCH 01/11] - [PATCH 04/11]:
Reviewed-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@arm.com>

If no one shoot any of those options down, you might want to squash them
into one patch, since they all go into the same file.
Unless you need to meet some company patch count target before the end
of the year :-D

Cheers,
Andre.

P.S. Shall we mark those patches somehow, so that we can easily revert
them later? Those commands can be useful.

Cheers,
Andre

Agreed this, and If we go further better to have A64 and H5 check directly.

This is intentional. I really want to have an experience as close as
possible on the arm and arm64 boards, and having the same commands set
is one of the things that matter to achieve that :)

That works for me :)

I guess I missed that deadline already... ;)

That might be a good idea. Do you have a suggestion?

this make unselect HASH so, few of the boards have build issues, we
can select sunxi directly on HASH kconfig.

OK, hold on.  This series was supposed to be pulled in to v2018.01, to
fix size issues, before we could take the env series that I said can
come in for v2018.03, yes?  So we should just not do this series and
take Maxime's update to the env series which I expect to be posted soon
so I can merge it, and sunxi can move to env in FAT and not have the
problem it has on aarch64 atm.

All the errors on the build 3 (which is the one that failed in your
history) are related to git issues it seems, and not build failures.

Which boards are failing?

They are a bit orthogonal actually.

This serie addresses the build failures we have today in order to
still be able to build binaries that work.

The FAT transition is more of a longer-term goal in order to not have
the size restriction we have eventually (hopefully 2018.05).

So the first one mitigates the problem, while the second one allows us
to get rid of the problem entirely in the future.

Not exactly, boards which uses dfu from 5i/7i/8i are failed [2]
