I updated my tree from the previous time You probably saw it. Most of
the features are complete. It requires to edit U-Boot environment with
this value:
bootcmd=load mmc 0:1 0x4d00000 boot.scr; source 0x4d00000
With that it should boot without manual intervention.

What is left out:
a) mini PCIe shouldn't work ATM here are some patches:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/819585
You should omit the last one,
b) booting from other mediums than SD card,
c) sysupgrade on other mediums than SD card.

I'll appreciate any feedback.
