Basically I think this approach should cover the necessary steps. To be 
more clear about my tweak

1- BootROM loads SPL from SD

2- SPL is tweaked to load U-Boot from eMMC, and in this way test its 
support on SPL

Thank you much for taking the time to test these patches in you board. I 
really appreciate your help

Thanks. I'll add the tag to the v3.

Thanks for sharing your opinion. I agree with you, but I was still 
wondering what were your thoughts about this.
