[U-Boot] [PATCH 2/2] rsa: Return immediately if required-key verification fails

From: Daniele Alessandrelli <daniele.alessandrelli at gmail.com>

Currently, if image verification with a required key fails, rsa_verify()
code tries to find another key to verify the FIT image. This however, is
not the intended behavior as the documentation says that required keys
"must be verified for the image / configuration to be considered valid".

This patch fixes the issue by making rsa_verify() return immediately if
the verification of a required key fails.
