I missed this part before, sorry.  What we do on am335x_evm to allow
for easier overrides is:
- bootcmd runs findfdt (since we'll need it in all cases).
- Enable CONFIG_CMD_FS_GENERIC
- Add a 'loadfdt' command that can be called out ala loaduimage
- Use 'load' in loadfdt/loaduimage so that we don't care what the
  underlying filesystem type is.
- Use bootdir to help with overrides as well:
loaduimage=load mmc ${bootpart} ${loadaddr} ${bootdir}/${bootfile}
loadfdt=load mmc ${bootpart} ${fdtaddr} ${bootdir}/${fdtfile}

So that we can easily grab from the first partition (FAT) or another
partition (ext3/4/etc).
