U-Boot grabs it from the /boot directory on the ext4 partition:

$ cat board/olimex/a20_olinuxino/boot.cmd
setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rootwait panic=10 ${extra}
ext4load mmc 0 0x49000000 /boot/${fdtfile}
ext4load mmc 0 0x46000000 /boot/zImage
env set fdt_high ffffffff
bootz 0x46000000 - 0x49000000
$

This behaviour has always been in place for the A20 OLinuXino series.
This patch does not change how these boards boot, it just automates
the manual writing instructions with genimage.
