This series adds support for locating partitions using GPT partition
type GUID instead of unique partition UUID. This enables the saveenv
command to work with partitions identified by their type rather than
unique identifiers, providing flexibility for systems where partition
UUIDs may vary across devices but types remain constant.
---
Changes in v2:
- Compute blk_find_max_devnum(UCLASS_SCSI) only once in scsi_get_blk_by_type_guid()
- Introduce a Kconfig choice config to select between UUID-based
and type GUID-based partition lookup methods.
- Enable above new config in qcom_qcs615_defconfig and qcm6490_defconfig
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/20260108064947.3237361-1-balaji.selvanathan@oss.qualcomm.com/
