No need for the new EBI binding atm, so no reason to rush it.

Hopefully there is a fist stage bootloader somewhere in the todo list.
I really like how this works with PBL and multi image - it is very elegant
in barebox and then at91bootstrap is no longer required.

I have a sama5d4 eXplained board - but the display no longer works.
I will try to take a look at DT enabling the board if I find time.
We can revisit what to do then, if you do not beat me to it before.

Looking at at91bootstrap I do not have high hopes.
Only the sama5 chips have this code enabled.
(Looked at v3.9.3 - which is the latest with at91sam9x support).
