Building sd images for rk3188 requires more steps due to the needed split
into TPL and SPL as loaders. Describe how to build an image for it in a
separate paragraph in the READER.rockchip file.

+Booting from an SD card on RK3188
+=================================
+
+For rk3188 boards the general storage onto the card stays the same as
+described above, but the image creation needs a bit more care.
+
+The bootrom of rk3188 expects to find a small 1kb loader which returns
+control to the bootrom, after which it will load the real loader, which
+can then be up to 29kb in size and does the regular ddr init.
+
+Additionally the rk3188 requires everything the bootrom loads to be
+rc4-encrypted. Except for the very first stage the bootrom always reads
+and decodes 2kb pages, so files should be sized accordingly.
