Thank you! I am not the only one using board-specific boot commands
however, I saw it used on sunxi with the FEL boot command. :)
Yes, I think that would make sense, even if it is just to move shared
targets into a common file and make them more reusable. There seems to
also be a lot of code duplication from config_distro_common.h in the
NXP LS board files, which can probably be removed.
