bool "support MMC boot partitions"
+ help
+ Provide access to the 'boot partitions' of devices of type 'MMC'.
+ These so called 'hardware partitions' act like an independent memory
+ device and thus, need special handling.
+
+ Note: only 'MMC' have 'boot partitions'. So, if you don't use an
+ 'MMC' device, you don't need this support.
