I don't think that the policy, first comes first serves as system
partition, is a right decision as
- the order of device probe on U-Boot is indeterministic, and
- there can be several partitions that hold a system partition bit.
  You may have OS installed on eMMC, but also may have bootable DVD
  on the system.
