Hi,

I've added an option that allows the BSP to do further verification  
of the image before its allowed to run.  I'll show how i used it when  
i resubmit my BSP shortly, but this patch just  contains the option.
Here is the README entry:

+- CONFIG_IMAGE_VERIFY
+
+		If this option is defined, bootm will callout to
+		image_verify() and only boot the image if it returns nonzero.
+		Image_verify() should be defined by the BSP in board/ to
+		do whatever it wants to validate the image is okay for the
+		board.  For example, it might want check something in the
+		hdr->ih_name string.

CHANGELOG:

Added CONFIG_IMAGE_VERIFY to allow BSP to verify image before  
allowing it to boot.
