Hi Roman,

Thank you for the patch.

Should this be: abootimg load mmc 0 boot a ?

On -next branch (where the patch will be applied), I see the following
build error:

cmd/abootimg.c: In function ‘do_abootimg_load’:
cmd/abootimg.c:279:26: error: implicit declaration of function ‘get_timer’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
  279 |         int time_start = get_timer(0);
      |                          ^~~~~~~~~

Please add the missing include: #include <time.h>

Base: 7e52d6ccfb76 ("Merge patch series "FWU: Add support for FWU metadata version 2"")

Can we please do this in a single line, like done in other commands such
as do_abootimg_addr()?

Why 4096? If this is a known number, can we use a define for it please?

This causes warnings on -next when building sandbox:
$ make sandbox_defconfig

"partition name" instead of "partition number"?
