The patch is fixing:
"tools: mkimage: Check if file is regular file"
(sha1: 56c7e8015509312240b1ee15f2ff74510939a45d)
which contains two issues reported by Coverity
Unchecked return value from stat and incorrect calling sequence where
attack can happen between calling stat and fopen.
Using pair in opposite order (fopen and fstat) is fixing this issue
because fstat is using the same file descriptor (FILE *).
Also fixing issue with:
"tools: mkimage: Add support for initialization table for Zynq and
ZynqMP" (sha1: 3b6460809c2a28360029c1c48247648fac4455c9)
where file wasn't checked that it is regular file.
