u-boot/board/isee/igep00x0/igep00x0.c is using only two MTD partitions,
runtime generated. As OMAP's BootROM tries to read from atmost first
four sectors before it gives up, size of SPL partiton is runtime
generated according to NAND sector size. The rest of NAND is UBI managed.
This of course breaks backward compatibility, but is unlikely to break
in future. Someone needs to decide :)
