Subject: [PATCH] ARM: start: check for machine type last
Date: Thu,  7 Nov 2019 21:12:56 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191107201256.35249-1-dev@lynxeye.de> (raw)

A valid DTB may reside low in the Barebox binary address map. If this
binary is started at a very low address, we might mistake the pointer
for a machine type. Make sure to check for all other possibilities first
before interpreting the boarddata as a raw machine type.

Fixes: 19c24e2f0121 (ARM: start: Allow to pass machine type as boarddata)
