if (!select)
is better I think since that holds the selected device tree. If it
NULL when there is none.

I think everyone is happy with the approach so I'd like to merge this.
But I'm not keen on the error handling. Some of the cases are genuine
errors, viz.:
if ((load < image_end) && (load_end > image_start)) {
fdt_error("fdt overwritten");
goto error;
}
if (fdt_check_header(fdt_blob) != 0) {
fdt_error("image is not a fdt");
goto error;
}
if (fdt_totalsize(fdt_blob) != fdt_len) {
fdt_error("fdt size != image size");
goto error;
}
So how about leaving error: alone and adding a new label above it like no_fdt:
Then you can change the other goto statements to 'goto no_fdt' which
can do your check and either return, or fall through to errror:.

Simon
