When trying to bootup qemuarma9 BSP with uImage, I ran into the below issues:
1. Need u-boot-mkimage-native depend. kernel.bbclass just checks if KERNEL_IMAGETYPE is uImage, if it is the depend will be added. But, it doesn't check KERNEL_ALT_IMAGETYPE. In the patch, the check for alt image is added. 2. UBOOT_LOADADDRESS is passed to uboot-mkimage in do_uboot_mkimage. But, this function just check if KERNEL_IMAGETYPE is uImage or not. It doesn't check KERNEL_ALT_IMAGETYPE. The patch adds the check. 3. KERNEL_ALT_IMAGETYPE is not deployed at all, although it is built. So, we need install, deploy and package the atl image. Changelog V1 -> V2: Check if KERNEL_ALT_IMAGETYPE is empty or not. If KERNEL_ALT_IMAGETYPE is empty, just skip alt image install and deploy, otherwise it is failed to install/deploy because KERNEL_ALT_OUTPUT doesn't point to a real kernel image file.
