Yeah. I am not very sure if there is a better way to determine the size.
Hence the comment. I am hoping somebody here would suggest something ;).

That will be catastrophic. But this was intended only for booti and the 
expectation was that only Image.gz must be loaded before this.

Having said that, if we can find a reliable way of figuring out the 
compressed file size here, we can get rid of this hack.

Just wanted to be explicit. Will remove it.

Yes. FIT image parsing can be done in that way. However, the idea was 
here to load Image.gz directly. Image.gz is default compressed Linux 
kernel image format in RISC-V.
