Hi Sekhar,

I built the current upstream u-boot and the get_board_rev() function
for da850-evm doesn't seem to be called at all. For instance the
lego-ev3 platform does this:

./lego/ev3/legoev3.c:108: board_rev =3D get_board_rev();

but in davinci this function seems to be unused and I don't see it
called from any other core u-boot component. I don't see any commit
that would mention this function but there are a lot of commits
removing get_board_rev() for other boards in git log. Is it possible
it stopped being used at some point?
