[U-Boot] how to load u-boot environment from nand while spl is loading

[Francesco Lucconi]

I'm working with imx28evk reference board with u-boot 2011.12 and for my 
specific purposes I have to load u-boot nand environment during spl 
binary is loading. I'm working with a static environment but this is not 
so useful because I need to initialize some drivers (such as serial 
console) with the current values stored within nand flash environment 
(such as baudrate variable).
Comparing my u-boot version with more recent ones (u-boot 2015.10) I've 
found out that the enviroment loading has been applied during ram 
bootstrapping...can't we do this operation before u-boot.bin has been 
loaded in ddr memory?
Could you send me any tips to solve this issue?
