[U-Boot] [PATCH 1/2] ARM: imx: cm_fx6: export board and soc info to env

From: Christopher Spinrath christopher.spinrath@rwth-aachen.de
Like many other i.MX6 based boards, there are multiple variants of the cm-fx6 module featuring different SoC variants. Furthermore, the module can be paired with multiple baseboards.
At the same time modern distribution like Fedora require U-Boot to select a proper devicetree which depends on the SoC variant and the baseboard.
Thus, export the SoC variant and the actual board to the environment following the conventions of other i.MX6 devices (e.g. the NXP boards) such that the environment can select a devicetree file to load.
For now, we only know for sure that the cm-fx6 module and the SB-fx6m baseboard amount to a Utilite Computer variant (depending on the SoC). Further combinations may be added in the future; e.g. CompuLab's evaluation board once someone can verify the identification string stored in its eeprom.

Patches look good.
Maybe you could combine both into a single one?

Both have a good explanation uin the commit message. I will merge them as they are.
Best regards, Stefano
