[poky] networking support in u-boot for beagle-xm rev c

[Robert Berger]

Hi,

I just built with a pretty recent version (commit
e3c5d7a90ae179af0ac128ea4dfc1a5a6602c2e4) of
core-image-sato-sdk-beagleboard and I'm running it on my beagle-xm rev c.

At the moment it does not seem to do much about networking from u-boot:

If I remember well Koen has some u-boot under his git repo, which also
contains networking support from within u-boot.

Are there any plan to include something like this with the official release?
