Subject: [PATCH] u-boot.elf: allow overriding entry symbol
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

LD gives the following warning when trying to process u-boot-elf.o
warning: cannot find entry symbol __start; defaulting to 0000000080010000
According to gnu-libc the entry symbol for mips is __start and not _start:
