It seems that the only important part of the u-boot patches is where
it sets the default case to behave like an xM, so we can have higher
changes to have the released image working with future board
revisions. Besides that it's basically used to print the correct board
revision to the user.

So I'd recommend to apply them, but be sure that as we remove the
mpurate settings (from first patch) we may need additional patches to
set up the correct mpurate value depending on the cpu type. Check
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/71995/ for more information. Sakoman
may also help here.
