Thanks for this update! Maybe this question has been asked before, but
how much version dependency there is between these firmware files, and
the U-Boot/TF-A/Linux code? Do they need to be exactly in sync to work
altogether, or do newer firmware versions provide proper backward
compatibility and therefore continue to work even if the rest of the
software stack (U-Boot, TF-A, Linux) is older?

Thanks!

Thomas
