Enable the CONFIG_MTD_SPI_NOR_USE_VARIABLE_ERASE kernel option to allow for U-Boot environment writing. This might be hiding a problem somewhere else, since the w25q128fw chip supports 32K erases, still this change makes it much easier to switch the GL-MV1000 boot media without an UART cable connection.
Thanks to @robimarko and @hacks for the precious hints and suggesting a better approach.
