PATCH 1/1 board/boundarydevices: remove u-boot from genimage.cfg

Adding a comment to explain how to update the bootloader since it is located in NOR flash memory.

---
Hi,

Just realized that our genimage.cfg can be confusing since it copies the u-boot binary although the BootROM will always boot from NOR.

Regards,
Gary
