This change conflicts with Ahmads bootm override series. In that series

int bootm_boot(struct bootm_data *bootm_data)

is replaced with

int bootm_boot_handler(struct image_data *data)

So bootm_data is no longer available here. I replaced bootm_data->provide_policy
with 0 for now, but this needs a proper fix. Ahmad, Fabian, Could you look into it?
