PATCH 1/1 mx6sabresd: Add fastboot support

From: Fabio Estevam <[email protected]>

fastboot tool is a convenient way to flash the eMMC, so add support for it.

Examples of usages:

On the mx6sabresd:

=> fastboot 0

On the Linux PC connected via USB:

$ sudo fastboot getvar bootloader-version -i 0x0525
bootloader-version: U-Boot 2018.01-00550-g7517cfe
finished. total time: 0.000s
$ sudo fastboot reboot -i 0x0525

(this causes the mx6sabresd to reboot)

---
The Linux PC runs Ubuntu 16.04 with fastboot version 1:6.0.1+r16-3.

are partition already defined? in sabre config. It's not used to know the u-boot version ;)
Can you just update the commit message in how you perform the update?

Ah, yes. I forgot to mention that I additionally enabled option CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION to get GPT partition support.

@Fabio, can we add this option as well?

I booted the board into Debian via NFS, and then use gpart to create GPT partitions on the eMMC. With CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION enabled in U-Boot, I can list the partitions on eMMC as below.

=> mmc dev 2
switch to partitions #0, OK
mmc2(part 0) is current device
=> mmc part

Partition Map for MMC device 2 -- Partition Type: EFI

Part Start LBA End LBA Name

=> fastboot 0

At this point, I can do 'fastboot flash system system.img' from host PC.
