Subject: [PATCH 2/2] arch: arm: imx: detect secondary boot
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 10:33:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260520-fpf-bootsource-instance-index-v1-2-29942f0e8f2f@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260520-fpf-bootsource-instance-index-v1-0-29942f0e8f2f@pengutronix.de>

Integrate support to detect secondary boot on imx machines.
Copy the logic for detection from the uboot-imx project[1].

The information will be stored in the `bootsource_instance_index`
variable.
