Thanks. I'll try and find time to do an upload ASAP. I think I'll change
the "(Partially addresses #751816)" into a proper closes and leave the
other more minor issues alone unless/until they bite actual users.

You mean the setenv line? I think "setenv bootargs ${bootargs} " should
be harmless enough.

Omitting it would be a bit tricky and would rely on me knowing more
about the supported feature set of each platforms shell or making
flash-kernel more complicated somehow. I don't think it's worth it, what
do you think?
