[U-Boot] [PATCH] arm: imx: Switch Wandboard to use config_distro_bootcmd.h.

[XoD]

Any new of this ? it can be merged ?

I have tested and successfully boot a fedora on a Wandboard Quad with this.

The improvement of the console variable management can be done with an
other patch ?

Thank you for working on this.
