We could just propagate the value of ret instead of coalescing every error
to EIO, but that's just a nit, so:

I think this should be merged now, as on the RPi4 this is somewhat of a
showstopper, because we don't have PCIe yet, so no USB, and no keyboard
support. Which means serial console is the only way to control U-Boot.

Cheers,
Andre.
