There is no such thing as struct bootmeth, it's probably a typo. This
issue doesn't affect the execution as it's a pointer, and pointer sizes
are the same for all data types. But it can be confusing, so make it
struct udevice, as it should be.

<title>bootstd: Probe bootmeth devices for bootmeths env var</title>

<id>8da358c0a15a4f538d561602f600b2695fedeb56</id>
<content type='text'>
Specifying efi_mgr in 'bootmeths' environment variable leads to NULL
pointer dereference when 'bootflow scan' is executed, with call trace
like this:

    priv-&gt;fake_dev // NULL pointer dereference
    .read_bootflow = efi_mgr_read_bootflow()
    bootmeth_get_bootflow()
    bootflow_check()
    bootflow_scan_first()
    do_bootflow_scan()
    'bootflow scan -l'

That happens because in case when 'bootmeths' env var is defined the
bootmeth_efi_mgr driver is not probed, and the memory for its private
data isn't allocated by .priv_auto. In case when 'bootmeths' env var is
not defined, the std-&gt;bootmeth_count is 0, and the execution flow in
bootmeth_setup_iter_order() takes "no ordering" path, which in turn runs
uclass_get_device_by_seq() -&gt; ... -&gt; device_probe(), so issue isn't
present there. But when 'bootmeths' is defined and contains efi_mgr, the
std-&gt;bootmeth_count &gt; 0, so bootmeth_setup_iter_order() follows the "we
have an ordering" path, where devices are not probed. In other words:

    'bootmeths' defined           'bootmeths' not defined
    --------------------------------------------------------
    priv == NULL                    priv != NULL
         ^                                ^
         |                        device_alloc_priv()
     no probe                     device_of_to_plat()
         ^                        device_probe()
         |                        uclass_get_device_tail()
    dev = order[i]                uclass_get_device_by_seq()
         ^                                ^
         | have an ordering               | no ordering
         +----------------+---------------+
                          |
             bootmeth_setup_iter_order()
             bootflow_scan_first()
             do_bootflow_scan()

Add an explicit device_probe() call in "we have an ordering" case to fix
the issue.

parameter for this, to the read_file() method. Update all users.

Make bootmeth_common_read_file() store information about the image that

As a first step to recording images and where they came from, update
this function to do so, since it is used by two bootmeths

Create a helper function in the bootflow system, since recorded
images are always associated with bootflows.

We have previously added logic to allow a "fallback" option to be
specified in the extlinux configuration. Provide a command that allows
us to set this as the preferred default option when booting.

Combined with the bootcount functionality, this allows the "altbootcmd"
to provide a means of falling back to a previously known good state
after a failed update. For example, if "bootcmd" is set to:

    bootflow scan -lb

We would set "altbootcmd" to:

    bootmeth set extlinux fallback 1; bootflow scan -lb

Causing the boot process to boot from the fallback option.

When bringing in the series 'arm: dts: am62-beagleplay: Fix Beagleplay
Ethernet"' I failed to notice that b4 noticed it was based on next and
so took that as the base commit and merged that part of next to master.

This reverts commit c8ffd1356d42223cbb8c86280a083cc3c93e6426, reversing
changes made to 2ee6f3a5f7550de3599faef9704e166e5dcace35.
