This series converts the extension board framework to use UCLASS as requested by Simon Glass, then adds extension support to pxe_utils and bootmeth_efi (not tested) to enable extension boards devicetree load in the standard boot process.
I can't test the imx8 extension scan enabled by the imx8mm-cl-iot-gate_defconfig as I don't have this board. I also can't test the efi bootmeth change as I don't have such board. Changes in v2: - Fixes few build errors. - Add patches to move the extension support and board scan out of XPL images build.
