Include attempting to boot from SCSI (SATA) devices within generated
board distro bootcmd environment. The reasoning for boot ordering is
that MMC and USB are external and removable, while when a case is in
use, replacing M.2 or mSATA drives requires disassembly. Therefore,
to boot SCSI, [bootable] external media must be removed. If SCSI were
placed before MMC or USB, then removing a bootable SCSI drive to
enable MMC or USB booting would be more difficult.

Enabled distro bootcmd support for additional SATA ports if enabled.

This patch builds on and requires the separate patch series adding
configurable SATA support ("arm: mvebu: clearfog: Add SATA mode flags").

As with other related ClearFog patches, I haven't received any review 
responses on this series 
(http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/?series=155760) and 
would like to ping out for additional review. I'd especially like 
feedback on the approach for support of multiple SCSI devices, if there 
a preferred or standardized mechanism I'd be happy to adjust, but I 
couldn't find any other examples of including multiple SCSI devices in 
distro_boot. In reviewing again myself there was an initial mental 
mismatch between CON2/CON3 usage as connection ports and the naming of 
SCSI_CLEARFOG2/SCSI_CLEARFOG3 as index counters, but otherwise still 
seems good.

If it's in an acceptable state for inclusion in the next merge window, 
that's certainly fine too, I'm just looking for a crosscheck.

Thanks!
Joel

Josua posted a similar patch (different order though):

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1239539/

I tend to pull your patch though in the next merge window, if nobody
objects. So:

I have an update I'll post shortly which keeps the same logic, but 
renames the defined macros to be SCSI bus centric (i.e. X_BUS0, X_BUS1, 
X_BUS2) instead of potential confusion with hardware labelled port 
locations.

I just wanted to send a bump on this series. With the first pull request 
of the merge window you merged Josua's patch. I'd still advocate for my 
original reasoning on the boot order priority, but in either case the 
second patch in this series is unique and non-conflicting since it adds 
support for the additional SCSI buses depending on configuration.

Josua - any objection to moving USB boot before SCSI in the priority 
order?

I'll rebase the series on current master since it will conflict, but 
wanted to try to get consensus on the approach before doing so.

Thanks!

Joel
