Chris,

You are correct, that patch is for the Linux kernel and should be 
applied to the kernel if you are planning on using u-boot.  It ensures 
that the board_info structure in the kernel matches the one used by u-boot.

Xilinx has a u-boot tree that works with the ML403 board.  It is 
available here:

Good luck,
