This board should be included on meta-fsl-arm-extra. Could you,
please, rebase your patches for that project?

Please, take a look https://github.com/Freescale/u-boot-imx
This is where we get u-boot from. It´s a fork of mainline one (denx)
plus some patches to include some patches that will be included on
next u-boot version or some patches to configure something rellated
with yocto (for example, scripts for inicialization).

I think it´s better to include your board (nitrogen6w) patches on that
repository instead for supporting those patches on the recipe.

But, the main question here is: Does u-boot mainline support
nitrogen6x/nitrogen6w?

What´s the difference between nitrogen6x and nitrogen6w? May this
board use nitrogen6x support someway?

Otavio, could you, please, comment on this? I think it would only a
matter of MACHINE_FEATURE.

The same is applicable to kernel. Apply patches in git repository and
then update kernel recipe.
