We shall remove these OMAP4/5-specific options in v2013.07, barring
insufficient progress on the kernel side.

+What:	Remove CONFIG_SYS_ENABLE_PADS_ALL and CONFIG_SYS_CLOCKS_ENABLE_ALL
+When:	Release v2013.07
+
+Why:	When set these options enable "all" of the pads and clocks found
+	on OMAP4/5 platforms, so that the Linux Kernel does not have to.
+	It has been agreed that this goes against the U-Boot design
+	philosophy and since f3f98bb0 we have not enabled more than is
+	used in U-Boot.  The kernel has been updating drivers to enable
+	rather than assume pads/clocks have been enabled already.  Our
+	expectation is that by v2013.07 a suitable kernel shall exist that
+	does not need these options set for a reasonable I/O set to function.
