Allwinner the only SBC with permanent uSD boot?

Are the Allwinner SOCs unique in persisting default boot from SD cards
or are there SOCs from other manufacturers with similar features?

I'm not aware of any other, there was tweaks/changes applied to the PBP's uboot to check for a u-boot on sdcard and boot that if found, but this can cause problems too.
