You should not define this property yourself in the device-tree, as it
may be overwritten without warning.

+firmware-loader property
+------------------------
+Multiple file system firmware loader nodes could be defined in device trees for
+multiple storage type and their default partition, then a property
+"firmware-loader" can be used to pass default firmware loader
+node(default storage type) to the firmware loader driver.
+
+Example
+-------
+/ {
+ chosen {
+ firmware-loader = &fs_loader0;
+ };
+
+ fs_loader0: fs-loader@0 {
+ u-boot,dm-pre-reloc;
+ compatible = "u-boot,fs-loader";
+ phandlepart = <&mmc 1>;

+Required properties:

+- compatible: should contain "u-boot,fs-loader"
+- phandlepart: which block storage device and partition the image loading from,
+ this property is required for mmc, usb and sata. This is unsigned
+ 32-bit array. For example phandlepart=<&mmc_0 1>, meaning use

+- mdtpart: which partition of ubi the image loading from, this property is

+- ubivol: which volume of ubi the image loading from, this property is required
+ for ubi and mounting.
