This is just a draft to discuss ideas related to "Make U-Boot log great again" thread.

With this patch we will see something like:

Loading Environment from FAT...
   --> MMC: no card present
   --> ** Bad device mmc 0 **
   --> Failed (-5)
Loading Environment from MMC...
   --> OK

instead of:

Loading Environment from FAT... MMC: no card present
** Bad device mmc 0 **
Failed (-5)
Loading Environment from MMC... OK

So, I think maybe (and given Wolfgang's comments) we should think about how the output might want to look, and how to get there without GD changes. Perhaps: Attempting to load Environment from FAT (do we have more easily available info at this point?): MMC: no card present ** Bad device mmc 0 ** Failed (-5) Loading Environment from MMC... Attempting to load Environment from MMC: Succeeded
