MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM263X: AM263X SBL QSPI total time taken

Hi expert

SDK: MCU-PLUS-SDK-AM263X_08_02_00_28

we use sbl_prebuilt\am263x-cc\ sbl_qspi.release.tiimage to load appimage with 217KB size.

After power on, show sbl log for SBL Total Time Taken almost ~200ms, but our customer requirement is <100ms

Our QSPI IC is same as AM263X-CC EVM

please guide us how to reduce sbl time for QSPI booloader?
