BootROM and neither SPL does not use eMMC boot acknowledgement or boot enable bits in EXT_CSD_PART_CONF eMMC register. And also fixed SATA disk sector 0x141 is not used at all.

SPL successfully loads u-boot from the same partition as SPL. SD card and UART continue to boot.
Thanks Pali!

Ok, is something more needed for this patch series?
Unfortunately yes. As at least this board breaks with this patchset added:
$ make sama5d2_icp_mmc_defconfig $ make -sj /opt/kernel.org/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-ld.bfd: u-boot-spl section `__u_boot_list' will not fit in region `.sram' /opt/kernel.org/gcc-12.2.0-nolibc/arm-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-linux-gnueabi-ld.bfd: region `.sram' overflowed by 32 bytes make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.spl:527: spl/u-boot-spl] Error 1 make: *** [Makefile:2049: spl/u-boot-spl] Error 2
So CI build fails and I can't send a pull request. I'm sending a patch though, to fix this image overflow by enabling LTO. Stay tuned...
I see... LTO helped. So can be this patch series now applied?
Thanks, Stefan
