Re: [PATCH 0/4] bootm: Handle compressed arm64 images with bootm

This little series corrects a problem I noticed with arm64 images, where the kernel is not recognised:

The $subject is misleading, bootm works just fine with compressed arm64 images, with the type set to "kernel".

    Type:         Kernel Image (no loading done)
    Compression:  gzip compressed

Isn't that a non-sensical combination to begin with? Decompressing the Image.gz kernel image to any location (however you determine that destination) _is_ loading it.

If you want XIP, obviously the image must be uncompressed in the FIT. I don't understand what you're trying to do here.
