[PATCH v4 1/7] scripts/make_fit: Speed up operation

From: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
Date: 2025-10-06 23:02:44
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: arm64 fit support, the rest · Maintainers: Simon Glass, Linus Torvalds

The kernel is likely at least 16MB so we may as well use that as a step
size when reallocating space for the FIT in memory. Pack the FIT at the
end, so there is no wasted space.

This reduces the time to pack by an order of magnitude, or so.

Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
