patchset 7 - core functionality

Hello,

This patch series implements the core of the new uImage support functionality, i.e., the actual booting of images in new format, as well as support in auxiliary commands that operate on images. There are also few fixing patches in the series.

The patchset concludes major development work on the new uImage format, with one missing piece (MD5 support) to be posted in a day or two. Generally, the new format supports everything that the old format does, with the exception of XIP and standalone applications. Also, only booting of the Linux kernel is supported. If there are people interested in contributing to these areas, please step forward.

It's a good moment to thank everybody who helped with this effort by commenting on requirements, etc., and those who helped by reviewing patches. At the same time it's important that people help with testing. The patchset 7 code is already available in the new-image branch of the u-boot-testing repository -- please pull the code and try it out on the boards that you care about. Reading doc/uImage.FIT/howto.txt should be sufficient to get you started. Note that adding support for the new image format increases the size of U-Boot, so depending on your Flash sector layout, adjustments to CFG_MONITOR_LEN might be necessary.

The code builds on all architectures, and has been tested on ppc, but more thorough testing is needed. In particular, reports on test results of the following areas not tested due to hardware unavailability will be greatly appreciated:
- boards other that ppc
- booting from dataflash
- U-Boot commands:
- diskboot
- docboot
- fdcboot
- fpga
- nboot
- scsiboot
- usbboot

Regards,
Bartlomiej
