A38x BootROM has a bug which cause that BootROM loads data part of UART image into RAM target address increased by one byte when source address and header size stored in the image header are not same.
Workaround this bug by completely removing a gap between header and data part of the UART image. Without gap, this BootROM bug is not triggered.
This gap can be present in SDIO or SATA image types which have aligned start of the data part to the media sector size. With this workaround kwboot should be able to convert and send SDIO or SATA images for UART booting.
