This change is only available on imx8 and imx8m platform.

For imx7, BOOT_DEVICE_BOARD has already been set at the beginning of u32 spl_boot_device(void).
For imx6, BOOT_DEVICE_BOARD also has been set as below.
 21#if defined(CONFIG_MX6)
 22 /* determine boot device from SRC_SBMR1 (BOOT_CFG[4:1]) or SRC_GPR9 register */
 23 u32 spl_boot_device(void)
 24 {
 25     unsigned int bmode = readl(&src_base->sbmr2);
 26     u32 reg = imx6_src_get_boot_mode();
 27
 28     /*
 29      * Check for BMODE if serial downloader is enabled
 30      * BOOT_MODE - see IMX6DQRM Table 8-1
 31      */
 32     if (((bmode >> 24) & 0x03) == 0x01) /* Serial Downloader */
 33         return BOOT_DEVICE_BOARD;
