hmm. I think the code should be 

     ret = bbu_check_metadata(data);
     if (ret)
          return ret;

or something. Otherwise the verification of the compatible doesn't abort the
update process. The function bbu_check_metadata returns -EINVAL if the
compatible is wrong.

The user has still the option to use "-f" or "-l" to flash a new barebox image,
if the already running barebox has the wrong compatible for the device. I just
noticed these options while looking at your patches. The force level is quite a
nice implementation to gradually overwrite any safety locks.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards,
	Stefan Christ
