Hello Fabio,

Thank you for pointing out that I was missing `ENV_SECT_SIZE`.
After adding this, the pipeline no longer reports the error.

I tested the patches (V1) before posting them.
There were no issues during the build process.
Likewise, there were no problems during booting or during direct
testing on the hardware with the four TQMa6UL[L]x[L] variants.

I am sending the corrected series as V2.

Best regards,
Max
