Hi Nicolas,

sorry for html but I’m mobile.

My patch for fixing the build failure for Galileo has been upstream, but Linux version is very old,
I’ve added a local patch from 2014 as pointed Arnout below.
I don’t have a Galileo board and you are the maintainer, can you please update uboot and Linux versions and send a patch for that after testing please?

Thank you!
