Prerequisites:

I also misunderstood your assumption above; You are developing a linux-based USB gadget for Windows (10)?
No.
Now, when you format that exposed disk (which is actually a partition on eMMC!) in Windows, you will get nested partitioning.
So why do you want to access *that* partition from U-Boot on the board? I don't think it is a common case.
What I'm trying to do is to copy some bootables to that partition from Windows machine in order to boot them via U-Boot. That's allow me not to disturb stock image on that board.
If U-Boot is not going to support nested partitioning, perhaps I can submit a documentation fix to advertise this explicitly.
