I am thinking to write as below:

i.MX8QXP rev C.0 requires boot container stored at offset 0KB for eMMC,
while i.MX8QXP pre C.0 requires boot container stored at offset 32KB for eMMC.

To use one U-Boot binary to support different chip revisions, introduce
fb_mmc_get_boot_offset() to allow override the default offset when writting
to eMMC boot partitions.

This enables support for devices with non-standard boot partition
layouts, such as those requiring an offset for correct bootloader
placement.
