It should be enough for all u-boot-based 8xx boards, barring some u-boot 
which needs special fixups (as is done in cuboot-pq2.c).  If such a need 
arises, they can be added to cuboot-8xx.c (if they're generic enough to 
work on all boards, even if not actually needed) or to a board-specific 
platform file (which can coexist just fine with the generic 8xx one).
