JFYI,

I've enabled booting the system from USB device for am335x:
https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/commit/8c444c184c36dfa314a2a500349785f58c8a8d24
It works fine with JeOS written on USB-flash drive.

I've also managed to learn how to supply U-boot via UART, but it works too
slow: 10KBps given U-boot size is about 1MB.
