[LEDE-DEV] [PATCH 2/3] otrx: optimize memory usage when creating TRX image

[Rafał Miłecki]

From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal at milecki.pl>

There is no need to allocate buffer as big as the whole image in order
to calculate CRC32. It's enough to use small buffer and just read file
content block by block.
