This patch gives an opportunity to override the defined CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND
(at <board_config.h> files) with set of commands defined in
board _defconfig file.

Rationale: This change allows having two different u-boot builds - one for
production and one (far more larger) for factory setup.

I don't get it, sorry.  We need to move CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND into Kconfig
with some other logic so that distro_bootcmd stuff works.


The state of the art:
---------------------

Many boards use CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND as a set of commands to be
executed at boot time:

bootcmd=CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND

One notable user of it is config_distro_bootcmd.h

Right.

Rationale:
----------

With this patch I can:

1. Setup one set of commands to be executed by default - e.g.:

bootcmd="run boot_mmc"

and

2. Have other defconfig - e.g. <my_board>_factory_defconfig, which
enables some extra stuff (like USB, gadget, gpt write, etc) and is
used solely for factory flashing.

By having the opportunity to override CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND in Kconfig,
I can use the same code base and just adjust Kconfig for board.


What do you mean by "some other logic"?

Well, CONFIG_BOOTCOMMAND needs to be moved to Kconfig itself.  Figuring
out some of the "how" will take a little work.  And a little
re-organization.  But that needs doing.


Cannot we start with the approach proposed by this commit?

How would you see the rework done?
