Why don't you just turn this into default __weak function and override it on
board level when it is really needed to be overridden ?

Hi Marek,
env_get_location is already declared as __weak, check env/env.c. We
can't override it 2 times.

The original version (before it was added in 2707faf01f04
("imx8mn/imx8mp: override env_get_offset and env_get_location") is
located in env/env.c and for my board, this is the preferred method.
This replacement method actually is the opposite behavior from what I
want, which is to force the environment to a fixed location regardless
of the boot device.

I think Tommaso's method is better, because as it is, the users cannot
override it any more.

Doesn't 1/4 patch break env on pretty much every single imx8m board ?

For me, patch 1/4 fixed the issue of not being able to define a fixed
environment location.  It now sits where I put it.  It also allows me
to boot over USB without having to define ENV_IS_NOWHERE.

Sure, it also likely breaks every other MX8M board which does not define that env_get_location() on board level, i.e. every MX8M board.
