work. Also add a binding file.

+	  U-Boot supports a standard way of locating something to boot,
+	  typically an Operating System such as Linux, provided by a distro such
+	  as Arch Linux or Debian. Enable this to support iterating through
+	  available bootdevs and using bootmeths to find bootflows suitable for
+	  booting.
+
+	  Standard boot is not a standard way of booting, just a framework
+	  within U-Boot for supporting all the different ways that exist.
+
+	  Terminology:
+
+	    - bootdev - a device which can hold a distro (e.g. MMC)
+	    - bootmeth - a method to scan a bootdev to find bootflows (owned by
+	        U-Boot)
+	    - bootflow - a description of how to boot (owned by the distro)

+	  This enables various useful features for standard boot, which are not
+	  essential for operation:
+
+	  - bootdev, bootmeth commands
+	  - extra features in the bootflow command
+	  - support for selecting the ordering of bootmeths ("bootmeth order")
+	  - support for selecting the ordering of bootdevs using the devicetree
+	    as well as the "boot_targets" environment variable
