Hi Nikolay,

Sorry for the delay.

Np, I'm sorry for poking you.

This only affects mmc boot, but what if people boot from NFS?

For sure I realize that there are lots of possible permutations, but I
would prefer someone who really needs this functionality to test and
propose a patch for it, which patch extends the current solution. I
just don't have the resources to implement all the possible variants,
but I will always welcome if you send such a patch.

To be honest I don't know what is the best way to handle this.

Same here, but this my 4th attempt to provide a better solution
(mainline u-boot, yocto master, 2 patch attempts to u-boot-fslc), and
I'm starting to run out of ideas :D.

Actually the code in your email is from my old patch you rejected.
Here's the actual code from the Github u-boot-fslc pull-request:

Subject: [PATCH] mx6sabresd: Enable video interfaces in bootargs

Generate kernel video bootargs for sabresd, based on a list of needed video
interfaces ("video_interfaces" U-Boot env-var). The order of initialization
and video settings can be fully customized.

That's correct. I don't think that hdmidet can work without U-Boot HDMI
support, so I would propose the dumb idea of just disabling the U-Boot
HDMI support and have things working in Linux.
