brcm2708: implement sysupgrade image check
Implement a crude but functioning sysupgrade image check for the Raspberry Pi. The code only checks if the master boot record boot signature (0x55aa) is present in the first 512-bytes at the correct location. This can prevent the odd bricking of a system when flashing the wrong file. Signed-off-by: Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@googlemail.com>
