Hi All,

This patchset adds 'mbr' command to let one to create or verify MBR
(Master Boot Record) partition layout based on the provided text
description. This can be used in scripts to help system flashing
tools/scripts to ensure proper partition layout. It has been inspired by
the 'gpt' command already present in u-boot.

Best regards
