> So far we were not using the FIT image format to its full potential:

> Now with the refactored loader code it's easy to load an arbitrary
> number of images in addition to the two mentioned above.
> As described in the FIT image source file format description, iterate

> node and load every image at its desired location.
> This allows to load any kind of images:
> - firmware images to execute before U-Boot proper (for instance
>   ARM Trusted Firmware (ATF))
> - firmware images for management processors (SCP, arisc, ...)
> - firmware images for devices like WiFi controllers
> - bit files for FPGAs
> - additional configuration data
> - kernels and/or ramdisks
> The actual usage of this feature would be platform and/or board specific.
> 
> Also update the FIT documentation to mention the new SPL feature and
> provide an example .its file to demonstrate its features.
