Document SRC_GPR10 PERSIST_SECONDARY_BOOT functionality. This is useful for
reliable bootloader A/B updates, as it permits switching between two copies
of bootloader at different offsets of the same storage. The switch happens
in case one copy is corrupted OR can be enforced by user. This functionality
is present at least since i.MX53, however is poorly documented in all known
SoC datasheets, hence this document aims to clarify the usage, currently on
i.MX7D and i.MX8MM.

This patch series adds support for ZFS listing and load to u-boot.
To Enable zfs ls and load commands, modify the board specific config file with
#define CONFIG_CMD_ZFS
Steps to test:
1. After applying the patch, zfs specific commands can be seen
in the boot loader prompt using
UBOOT #help
zfsload- load binary file from a ZFS file system
zfsls - list files in a directory (default /)
2. To list the files in zfs pool, device or partition, execute
zfsls <interface> <dev[:part]> [POOL/@/dir/file]
For example:
UBOOT #zfsls mmc 0:5 /rpool/@/usr/bin/
3. To read and load a file from an ZFS formatted partition to RAM, execute
zfsload <interface> <dev[:part]> [addr] [filename] [bytes]
For example:
UBOOT #zfsload mmc 2:2 0x30007fc0 /rpool/@/boot/uImage
