In the FWU Multi Bank Update feature, the information about the updatable images is stored as part of the metadata, on a separate partition. Add functions for reading from and writing to the metadata when the updatable images and the metadata are stored on a block device which is formated with GPT based partition scheme.

Can we pick a better name than metadata? It is just so vague...everything is metadata.
The specification calls it metadata. And the functions in this file are
for accessing the metadata on a GPT partitioned block device. Do you have any alternate name for this?
Well lots of things call their metadata "metadata". That doesn't mean it is a good name for the code base. Which specification? Do you have a link?
I am referring to the FWU specification[1]. Please refer to section 4 in the document.
