Thanks for sharing your results. By the way I had started a libfuzzer integration
for barebox a while back that I just pushed here:

  https://github.com/a3f/barebox/tree/libfuzzer

It still needs some love to make it upstream, but it's already usable and can find
issues, but it still suffers from depleting memory after a while. I need to fix
those memory leaks and clean it up when I find the time, so we can start more heavily
fuzzing a base set of functionality that's needed for secure boot (mainly partition
tables, file type detection and FIT image parser).
