Obviously, this *imply* doesn't enforce enabling FAT. If it is absolutely necessary, another measure should be taken.
If somebody wants to minimize the U-Boot size it might be necessary to do without FAT_WRITE or FAT support.
In addition, why do you treat FAT specifically here? I remember that you insisted that other file system should be allowed on U-Boot when I posted some patch.
An EFI system partition is always FAT formatted. So if we want to safe U-Boot variables to the EFI system partition we require FAT.
