[PATCH u-boot-mvebu 24/31] arm: mvebu: Remove legacy U-Boot header from kwbimage v1 files

From: Pali Rohár <pali at kernel.org>

Now that BootROM always loads main U-Boot binary, the legacy 64-byte
header is not used anymore. BootROM uses only kwbimage v1 headers where
all necessary information about how to load and execute SPL / U-Boot is
present.

Remove this 64-byte header by putting u-boot.bin binary (instead of
u-boot.img) into kwbimage v1 and let BootROM to load U-Boot directly
at its execution address.
