[U-Boot] [PATCH v3 1/5] common: introduce maximum load size

[Lukasz Majewski]

Hi Rob,

> From: Rob Herring <robh at kernel.org>
> 
> Various commands that load images have no checks that a loaded image
> does not exceed the available RAM space and will happily continue
> overwriting u-boot or other RAM that should not be touched. Also,
> some commands such as USB DFU or fastboot need to know the maximum
> buffer size, but there is no common way to define this.
> 
> Introduce a global load_size and environment variable loadsize to
> specify the size. The default is ~0UL which is effectively unlimited.
