+'''Important Note'''
+Until these patches are added to the official NXP U-Boot tree, they should be considered experimental. The patch from NXP that adds the LVDS driver makes changes that may not be compatible with other machines. It also modifies clock settings, which might not work with all displays. Use these patches at your own risk.
