From: Rob Herring <rob.herr...@calxeda.com>

pxelinux and syslinux differ in their handling of absolute paths in menu
files. A pxelinux path is aways prepended with the bootfile path while
syslinux allows for absolute paths. u-boot was always treating a leading
/ as an absolute path breaking some pxelinux setups. Fix this by adding
a flag to distinguish pxelinux vs. syslinux behavior.
