6607d397c2 common/armflash: load_image returns success or failure
Change the load_image so that it returns success or failure of the
command (using CMD_RET_SUCCESS or CMD_RET_FAILURE).

This way, hush scripts can optionally load different files depending
upon the system configuration.

A simple example:

if afs load ${kernel_name} ${kernel_addr}; then echo loaded; else echo \
not loaded; fi

1a9717fb30 common/armflash: add command to check if image exists
Add a command to the ARM flash support to check if an image exists or
not.

If the image is found, it will return CMD_RET_SUCCESS, else
CMD_RET_FAILURE.  This allows hush scripts to conditionally load images.

A simple example:

if afs exists ${kernel_name}; then echo found; else echo \
not found; fi

4bb6650632 common/armflash: Support for ARM flash images
The ARM reference designs all use a special flash image format
that stores a footer (two versions exist) at the end of the last
erase block of the image in flash memory.

Version one of the footer is indicated by the magic number
0xA0FFFF9F at 12 bytes before the end of the flash block and
version two is indicated by the magic number 0x464F4F54 0x464C5348
(ASCII for "FLSHFOOT") in the very last 8 bytes of the erase block.

This command driver implements support for both versions of the
AFS images (the name comes from the Linux driver in drivers/mtd/afs.c)
and makes it possible to list images and load an image by name into
the memory with these commands:

afs - lists flash contents
afs load <image> - loads image to address indicated in the image
afs load <image> <addres> - loads image to a specified address

This image scheme is used on the ARM Integrator family, ARM
Versatile family, ARM RealView family (not yet supported in U-Boot)
and ARM Versatile Express family up to and including the new
Juno board for 64 bit development.
