No problem. Before applying, I looked in U-Boot if there was a tool
called mkpimage, and there wasn't, so I assumed it was still needed.

In this case, could you send some follow-up patches that revert the
changes that are no longer needed, and that update the two Altera
defconfigs to use newer U-Boot versions that have this capability?

Thanks!
