Subject: bootm: allow omitting entry point for IH_TYPE_KERNEL_NOLOAD
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c63051237f2bc79838a27473709948408acdf38b;p=thirdparty%2Fu-boot.git

bootm: allow omitting entry point for IH_TYPE_KERNEL_NOLOAD

For IH_TYPE_KERNEL_NOLOAD, the entry point is given relative to the
image start, making 0 a valid default, and for IH_OS_EFI, it is ignored
altogether, so it may be preferable to omit it.
