This shouldn't be an issue with FIT - issue with booting u-boot fdt bin

Just for FIT work usage - try to boot with u-boot.bin (fdt less u-boot bin)
So-that you can end up with normal u-boot booting.

On u-boot prompt and load u-boot-fdt.bin with TEXTBASE then load
u-boot> fatload mmc 0 ${TEXTBASE} u-boot-fdt.bin
u-boot> go ${TEXTBASE}

------ fdt u-boot boot prompt>
u-boot> fatload mmc 0 ${LOADADDR} kernel_fdt.itb
u-boot> bootm ${LOADADDR}
.....

Please send output log for this.
