[OE-core] [PATCH] kernel: fitimage: deploy real fit-image

Currently, do_deploy installs a standard kernel image as an ITB. This
image is linux.bin and it is prepared by uboot_prep_kimage.

The real kernel fit-image is build under arch/${ARCH}/boot/fitImage.

This patch deploys the real fit-image instead of the one prepared by
u-boot and which is included in the ITB.

Note: this patch only concerns fit-images which are not signed by u-boot
or which do not contains initramfs. Only a kernel image with a
device-tree.

Hi all,

This patch is a modified version of the one I wrote on a meta-arago/morty
build. Thus it is not tested, but it should work.

In the deploy image directory, I had

	$ file -L fitImage 
	fitImage: Linux kernel ARM boot executable zImage (little-endian)

With the patch, I have

	$ file -L fitImage 
	fitImage: data

Regards,
Gael
