This series adds a new OPTEE bootable image type to u-boot, which is
directly bootable with the bootm command.

There is already a TEE image type but, in this case the TEE firmware is
loaded into RAM, jumped into and then back out of. This image type is a
directly bootable image as described here :
http://mrvan.github.io/optee-imx6ul

Instead of reusing the Linux bootable image type instead a new image type
is defined, which allows us to perform additional image verification, prior
to handing off control via bootm.

OPTEE images get linked to a specific address at compile time and must be
loaded to this address too. This series extends out mkimage with a new
image type that allows the OPTEE binary link location to be validated
against CONFIG_OPTEE_TZDRAM_BASE and CONFIG_OPTEE_TZDRAM_SIZE respectively
prior to proceeding through the bootm phase.

Once applied you can generate a bootable OPTEE image like this

mkimage -A arm -T optee -C none -d ./out/arm-plat-imx/core/tee.bin uTee.optee

That image can then be booted directly by bootm. bootm will verify the
header contents of the OPTEE binary against the DRAM area carved out in
u-boot. If the defined DRAM area does not match the link address specified
we refuse to boot.

Kever - I'd like to suggest that your OPTEE SPL image takes a different
image type IH_TYPE_OPTEE_SPL ? to indicate the different behavior your
image type has versus a directly bootable bootm image.
