Saves the boot source into an environment variable so env scripts
can more easily use boot source information.

Note only tested on imx35. I haven't added support for any other variants
because I'm not familiar with them. (And can't test them anyway).

otherwise look good

I respectfully disagree. :) Other imx will require a slightly different 
approach to this function, the imx31 and the imx51 are both different for 
example.

So we either need to have a separate .c file for each different type and link 
them appropriately in the Makefile, or we have a single boot.c and 
conditionally compile.
I think its overkill to split it up into separate files, especially seeing as 
some code will be (hopefully) be used by multiple processors. I also think its 
better that with one file the code with similar functionality is grouped 
together.

Hope those arguments make sense.

I couldn't think of a way where a struct would make it easier than it is... 
suggestions?

Ack, you're right.

Guess I'll have to have another go :) I'll let it rest for a bit and see if 
there are any other comments.

Cheers
Marc
