Mangling the mmcroot depending of secure boot is hidden things from
user, in my point of view.

I am not the i.MX or WaRP7 maintainer so it is not my call but if I
were to decide I prefer default to be kept working with NXP kernel. To
accept this change, I would prefer if NXP kernel was changed in a way
it uses same mmcroot as will be used in mainline so if user upgrades
it, he/she has a consistent behaviour.
