Yes, I was too optimistic with the patch, I have myself seen that the
patch then break PowerPC boards.

Reading sdhc_boot.c, this file is not strictly related to PowerPC or IMX
hardware, but where u-boot image is stored on PowerPC code.

This is like a specific feature, but there is not a specific CONFIG_ for
it. In fact, in board/freescale/common/Makefile the file is always
compiled if CONFIG_RAMBOOT_PBL (not significant for imx) is not set if
the environment is in MMC:

ifndef CONFIG_RAMBOOT_PBL
COBJS-$(CONFIG_ENV_IS_IN_MMC)   += sdhc_boot.o
endif

What about to have a specific CONFIG_FSL_* for this file ? It can be
defined for PowerPC boards, and it will not for IMX. Any thoughts ?
