For now, this is just an RFC, which is why I'm only posting it here. If enough people agree that this is a good idea, then I'll post it to LKML. Note that mkimage is always generated. It should probably only be built for platforms that need it, but I didn't figure out how to do that yet. This is currently based on the mkimage version found in U-Boot 1.3.1.
