Adding Sekhar and Kevin to Cc here for confirmation. Thats true, we do not want to drop legacy booting for DA850 EVM yet. But if its coming in the way of code consolidation, I do not mind dropping WLAN support for that board. Anyone who really needs it can add support to the DA850 EVM DT file. Thanks, Sekhar
