43For #2, set sysboot to QSPI-1 boot mode(SYSBOOT[5:0] = 100110) and power
44on. ROM should find the GP header at offset 0 and load/execute SPL. SPL
45then detects that ROM was in QSPI-1 mode (boot code 10) and attempts to
46find a U-Boot image header at offset 0x20000 (set in the config file)
47and proceeds to load that image using the U-Boot image payload offset/size
48from the header. It will then start U-Boot.
