In snagboot mode, U-Boot is loaded directly by XBL without a prior

General feedback, I assume you're not writing these descriptions by
hand, they are overly verbose and don't convey much useful context. This
doesn't need to be a paragraph, just:

"In snagboot mode, there is no PSCI firmware and U-Boot will crash if it
attempts to make PSCI calls so disable it in this case."

It isn't acceptable to send me patches like this that have a full
sentence explaining how it changes a 'select' and an 'imply', i can see
that from the diff.

Please do better, take 30 seconds to write a sensible commit message.
This goes for everyone with an @oss.qualcomm.com email

Apologies!! We will try to be consise in our commit descriptions going forward.

Regards,

Balaji
