[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 1/4] part: efi: Add a Kconfig option for the number of partition entries

[Maxime Ripard]

On some SoCs, the SPL needs to be located right in the middle of the GPT
partition entries.

One way to work around that is to create partition entries for a smaller
number of partitions to accomodate with where the SPL will be. Create a
Kconfig option to allow to do that.
