boot: pxe_utils: Add extension board devicetree overlay support
Add support for scanning and applying extension board devicetree
overlays during PXE boot. After loading the main board devicetree,
the system now scans for available extension boards and applies their
overlays automatically.
This enables dynamic hardware configuration for systems with extension
boards during boot scenarios which are using pxe_utils.

boot: extension: Move overlay apply custom logic to command level
The extension_overlay_cmd environment variable approach is specific to
the U-Boot extension_board command, while other boot flows (pxe_utils,
bootstd) handle overlay loading differently.
Move the extension_overlay_cmd execution out of the core extension
framework to the command level. This decouples the framework from
command-specific behavior and prepares for future extension support
in other boot flows.

board: compulab: Exclude compulab extension board detection from XPL builds
Disable compulab extension board detection functionality in XPL (eXtended

The CAPE_EEPROM_BUS_NUM configuration option was incorrectly depending
on CMD_EXTENSION, which represents the extension board command. However,
the cape scan functionality can be built and used independently of the
command interface through the SUPPORT_EXTENSION_SCAN option.
Change the dependency from CMD_EXTENSION to SUPPORT_EXTENSION_SCAN to
properly reflect that the I2C bus configuration is needed for the cape
scan function itself, not specifically for the command.
NXP manufacturing tools expect the device to have the NXP 0x1fc9 vendor

Enable everything that is required to load via USB. The SPL needs
SDP support so it can load the U-Boot proper image via USB after
it has been loaded via serial loader mode of the i.MX.
This way we can use the uuu tool for loading SPL and U-Boot
proper like this:
The limit of 0x27000 (156 KiB) was valid at times the DDR firmware
required a fixed amount of 96 KiB of space. Now that we use binman
to include the DDR firmware it only needs around 57 KiB of space and
there is more room for the SPL.
Increase the max SPL size to 196 KiB so there is still 60 KiB for DDR
firmware. This allows us to enable USB and SDP support in SPL.

env: spi: Fix gd->env_valid for the first write
When both SPI environment locations are invalid (gd->env_valid ==

sets the active flag. However, the logic for updating gd->env_valid
incorrectly sets it to ENV_REDUND, which does not match the actual location
written. This causes the first two writes to target the same location, and
alternation only begins after the second write.
Update the logic to alternate gd->env_valid based on whether the last write

ENV_VALID and subsequent writes alternate as expected. This aligns
env_valid with the actual storage location and fixes the alternation
sequence from the first write.
