Still wondering about the choice of putting this fwumdata tool in U-Boot
instead of TF-A. TF-A is the boot part that manages the update process and
rollback through the FWU metadata, therefore, this is where it should belong.
Why, in the first place, mkfwumdata was accepted into U-boot instead of TF-A?
