[U-Boot] [PATCH v2 8/8] pico-imx6: Add Falcon mode

From: Fabio Estevam <festevam at gmail.com>

Add Falcon mode support, which allows the SPL to load and
jump to the Linux kernel directly, without the need of loading
U-Boot proper.

CONFIG_SPL_OS_BOOT=y needs to be passed in the defconfig
in order to use Falcon mode.
