Both the bmode command and the hdmidet command are undocumented and both
are imx specific.  Bmode is used for imx6 and 53 currently so I know those
are at least supported which is what Troy's original commit message said.
Eric tells me that hdmidet is imx6 specific.

So the documentation shuld probably go both in doc/README.imx5 and imx6
files?

Here's a rough draft of what I'd actually say

CONFIG_CMD_HDMIDETECT
Add the 'hdmidet' command; returns true if an HDMI monitor is detected.

CONFIG_CMD_BMODE
Add the 'bmode' (bootmode) command for forcing a boot from other media.
This is useful for forcing the ROM's usb downloader to activate upon a
watchdog reset
which is nice when iterating on U-Boot.  Using the reset button or running
bmode normal
will set it back to normal
