I thought it over again, and still have some concern about the
definition of info->header_size.

In this patch, the header_size is also used for the write_init() callback,
So if a driver needs the dynamic image header for write_init(), it should
update the info->header_size. But the driver may not want to skip the
header size when write(). Actually we have existing case now, some
drivers have initial_header_size but don't skip the header on write().
I guess maybe the firmware behind its data transfer engine deals with the
header correctly. And our current definition of info->header_size
restricts the usage.

I think if we could define the info->header_size as the generic image
header, the framework initialize the info->header_size as the
mops->initial_header_size. The parse_header() could enlarge the
info->header_size as needed.
Then we introduce a bool mops->skip_header for drivers to indicate
whether to skip info->header_size on write(). Since the exsiting drivers
don't skip the header, the default initial value of skip_header doesn't
affect exsiting drivers.

I think this definition is more clear, then we don't have to frequently
use like:

  if (info->header_size)
      header_size = info->header_size;
  else
      header_size = mops->initial_header_size

We may not need mops->initial_header_size any more after
info->header_size initialization.


And for info->data_size, it could be the actual data size that would be
transfered by write(). That is to say, if skip_header == true, it
excludes header_size, if skip_header == false, it includes header_size.
It could still be 0, which means the whole image buffer.

How do you think?

Thanks,
Yilun
