mmhhh...I agree with you. Marek, really I am expecting that the same
message appears on MX28, not only on arm1136. Only if the size of the
downloaded file is a multiple of 32, the warning will not appear.

Anyway, the message is misleading. Do we need such kind of warning or
can we simply silently ignore it ?
