[PATCH] imx-image: handle i.MX35 special case

["Eric Bénard" <eric@eukrea.com>]

From the i.MX35 user manual :
Since MLC NAND Flash devices do not guarantee error-free boot blocks,
the i.MX35 boot code requires that the first 4 Kbytes of boot code be
duplicated in a subsequent block to serve as a second copy option.

Actually imx-image puts the image at 4k but it seems that the i.MX35
bootrom copies only from 8k as it expects that there is a copy of the
first 0-4k in 4k-8k (and is supposed to use this copy if there is an
ECC error in the first 4k) as we can see in the following lines :
