You set data.os_entry explicitly to 0 here...

...and here. Why is this done? I think these should be left to the
default UIMAGE_SOME_ADDRESS. In the end the kernels bootet from blspec
or a boot script could be a FIT image as well.

pr_cont() doesn't work well in barebox and should be avoided.

Also I think this function shouldn't print anything, the caller should
if it wishes to.

Otherwise the patch looks fine to me.
