cp.b is used a lot as a way to load binaries to memory and execute
them, however we may need to integrate this with the efi subsystem to
set it up as a bootdev.
So, introduce a loadm command that will be consistent with the other
loadX commands and will call the efi API's.
ex: loadm $kernel_addr $kernel_addr_r $kernel_size
with this a kernel with CONFIG_EFI_STUB enabled will be loaded and
then subsequently booted with bootefi command.

At present U-Boot environment variables, and thus scripts, are defined
by CONFIG_EXTRA_ENV_SETTINGS. It is painful to add large amounts of text
to this file and dealing with quoting and newlines is harder than it
should be. It would be better if we could just type the script into a
text file and have it included by U-Boot.
Add a feature that brings in a .env file associated with the board
config, if present. To use it, create a file in a board/<vendor>
directory, typically called <board>.env and controlled by the
CONFIG_ENV_SOURCE_FILE option.
The environment variables should be of the form "var=value". Values can
extend to multiple lines. See the README under 'Environment Variables:'
for more information and an example.
In many cases environment variables need access to the U-Boot CONFIG
variables to select different options. Enable this so that the environment
scripts can be as useful as the ones currently in the board config files.
This uses the C preprocessor, means that comments can be included in the
environment using /* ... */
Also support += to allow variables to be appended to. This is needed when
using the preprocessor.

Add a 'mbr' command to let users create or verify MBR partition layout
based on the provided text description. The partition layout is
alternatively read from the 'mbr_parts' environment variable. This can be
used in scripts to help system image flashing tools to ensure proper
partition layout.
The syntax of the text description of the partition list is similar to
the one used by the 'gpt' command. Supported parameters are: name
(currently ignored), start (partition start offset in bytes), size (in
bytes or '-' to expand it to the whole free area), bootable (boolean
flag) and id (MBR partition type). If one wants to create more than 4
partitions, an 'Extended' primary partition (with 0x05 ID) has to be
explicitely provided as a one of the first 4 entries.
Here is an example how to create a 6 partitions (3 on the 'extended
volume'), some of the predefined sizes:
> setenv mbr_parts 'name=boot,start=4M,size=128M,bootable,id=0x0e;
name=rootfs,size=3072M,id=0x83;
