Currently on GTA-02 A4 at 200MHz ~19s (~15s at 400MHz) is burnt in U-Boot before
a decompressed Linux actually starts to boot.

We can improve matters a bit by seeing if we can parse the image we are reading
somehow to only read the (currently, 1.5MB) kernel footprint instead of a fixed
2MB block that seems to be the case right now.

Otherwise the raw NAND reading and ECC speed seems to be where the bulk of the
time goes.
