Hi,
commit 83e359a (am335x_evm: Enable CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT on EMMC_BOOT) breaks MMC on some boards. I believe it only breaks if EMMC has no partition on it, so that would point out to a bug on spl env support itself and this has only exposed it.
Here's a bisection log anyway:

Revert that commit also makes it work, btw.
On a further dig into this, it looks like when enabling CONFIG_SPL_ENV_SUPPORT, somehow MMC numbering changes and u-boot ends up trying to read environment from a non-formatted EMMC.
