imx: Introduce CONFIG_SPL_FORCE_MMC_BOOT to force MMC boot on falcon mode
This change tries to fix the following problem: - The board boots (to be more precise - ROM loads SPL) from a slow SPI-NOR memory. As a result the spl_boot_device() will return SPI-NOR as a boot device (which is correct). - The problem is that in 'falcon boot' the eMMC is used as a boot medium to load kernel from its partition. Calling spl_boot_device() will break things as it returns SPI-NOR device. To fix this issue the new CONFIG_SPL_FORCE_MMC_BOOT Kconfig flag is introduced to handle this special use case. By default it is not defined, so there is no change in the legacy code flow. Signed-off-by: Lukasz Majewski <lukma@denx.de>
