I mostly add the variables defined in doc/README.distro for boards I'm
adding distro_bootcmd support to, and there's no mention of bootm_size
there.

Are there other places that it would make more sense to document or add
documentation for this variable setting?

Does bootm_size impact bootz/booti as well, or is it just used with
bootm?
