This patchset aims at improving the robustness of the CFE detection and
image tag validation and parsing.

The image tag parsing improvement is especially useful when booting a
ramdisk image through tftp, since there is no guarantee that the image
on the flash is valid at this point.

As usual this patchset should got through the MTD tree and is based on
the l2-mtd-2.6 git.

Jonas Gorski (5):
  MTD: bcm63xxpart: check version marker string for newer CFEs
  MTD: bcm63xxpart: make sure CFE and NVRAM partitions are at least 64K
  MTD: bcm63xxpart: don't assume NVRAM is always the fourth partition
  MIPS: BCM63XX: bcm963xx_tag.h: make crc fields integers
  MTD: bcm63xxpart: check the image tag's crc32
