This is not a U-boot issue; this is an issue with the operating system
(at large) to which U-boot transfers control. If you are the designer of
the OS, then you're basically the boss and you should check why your
permanent storage does not keep the new password; if you use a
predesigned OS, turn to the designers for assistance.
Amicalement,
