The preboot commands are executed after lcd is turned on; ideally, the
splashimage should be in the frame buffer before that. There is also
the issue of having to fix the bmp load address to the appropriate
alignment (to comply with a similar fix in lcd.c from patch 3), and
checking for problems such as overwriting U-Boot data with the bmp. I
don't think Hush is the right tool for these actions.
