Nope.

Unrelated, but good catch!

I think somebody just pointed out that self is already a uint32_t,
so why the cast?

I like the more specific tags, but wonder if some minor edits wouldn't
make this more useful.

In particular, adding 0x before %08x would allow easier cut and paste
into signing scripts in a manual process.

I looked briefly at the output of 'mkimage -l' and found that it doesn't
reach this code block because imximage_ivt/csf_size variables are
set during the parsing of a .cfg file (they're UNDEFINED with
'mkimage -l').
