Cool stuff. Looking forward to it. :-)

It's something we will want sooner or later, but yes, it will likely be
involved.

$ addpart /dev/ram0 0x1000@0x1000(fit)
$ bootm /dev/ram0.fit

would've been the workaround so far.

Since the fuzzing infrastructure has been merged, we also have
ramdisk_init, which sets up a block device on top of a memory buffer
without block layer caching. I think that's sufficient to implement
losetup(8), which would go beyond addpart and even allow mounting file
systems from the loop device.

Cheers,
Ahmad
