Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: imd: update information on barebox_update
Date: Wed,  4 Dec 2024 07:23:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241204062352.758284-1-a.fatoum@pengutronix.de> (raw)

The documentation was added in 2014 and support for checking IMD on
barebox_update came 2 years later, but the docs were never updated.

Bring it up-to-date now.
