I believe the rational is that you really do need to pick a partition
before reading. If booting needs a certain partition then the boot
script needs the mmc part command in it.

Title:
uboot won't boot until running 'mmc part 0'
Status in Linaro U-Boot:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
U-Boot 2011.03 (Apr 20 2011 - 07:37:43)
Using the test automation we have, I have a pandaboard attached to my laptop
trying to deploy a new image, and using commands sent to uboot over the serial
console to get it booted:
U-Boot 2011.03 (Apr 20 2011 - 07:37:43)

As you can see, mmc rescan doesn't have any effect, but as soon as I
run 'mmc part 0' I can magically boot. This didn't happen in the
maverick version of uboot (which I have actually running on the master
image in the lab)
