I got the u-boot from the Freescale board support package. I have uploaded it here in case you need it:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxYpm2KnYUUCZmNjbmFaTWRWX2s/edit?usp=sharing Also available directly from freescale at : http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/site/prod_summary.jsp?code=RDIMX6SABREBRD&fpsp=1&tab=Design_Tools_Tab In the "Operating system software-board support packages" section the download named "L3.10.17_1.0.0_IMX6QDLS_BUNDLE" The website requires one to register (free) to download.
