Hi Teddy,
I was just trying to work your patch into my U-Boot tree to experiment
with it some when I realized that it requires CONFIG_SPL_DM which is
something the platforms I work with don't currently support :(

I'll need to look further and see what I can do about it (using the
non-DM rsa_mod_exp_sw routine instead of rsa_mod_exp?) but generally
speaking it seems like that non-DM based authentication could be a
useful feature for SPL, since one big reason of using an SPL in the
first place is to have something that fits into the minimum amount of
on-chip RAM possible...

Thanks and Regards,
