Looking forward to show the iterations behind this series to
contribution newbies. It's a good example of when things work well
both sides! I had this little piece of u-boot-tools flying around in
several projects, but never found the time to figure out a reasonable
approach to reconcile it cleanly with the other u-boot components. Of
course, I'm first of all showing myself that I'd have better
contributed it at first to leverage all suggestions that came out of
this discussion. Thanks Alexey for taking care of this all!
