[PATCH 10/20] binman: Plumb expanded entries through fully

Simon Glass sjg at chromium.org
Sun Mar 7 20:31:37 CET 2021


Add support for this feature in the control, image and section modules, so
that expanded entries will be selected by default. So far there are no
expanded entry types, so this is a nop.
