The V1 version: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/1096334/
This patchset is to support i.MX8 container loading from SPL, i.MX8 AHAB secure boot not support FIT image, so we need to use container image.
Currently still use a fixed offset for the 2nd container(u-boot.cnt), future patches will drop this fixed offset and use dynamaic offset according to the size of 1st container for spl. Only MMC is supported now, future patches will also support SPI/NOR/NAND following similar style as mmc part, if the mmc part is ok.
Based on the comments in https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1096336/ So I think we have agreed the approach, the only comments that not addressed from Lukasz is add doc for the container format. The detailed format could be found in RM https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/reference-manual/IMX8DQXPRM.pdf Chapter 5.9.4 High Level Container Format
