    FWU: Check for overlaps when loading images · 128daee2

    Added checks to FWU_SMC_IMAGE_COPY to prevent loading data into a
    memory region where another image data is already loaded.
    
    Without this check, if two images are configured to be loaded in
    overlapping memory regions, one of them can be loaded and
    authenticated and the copy function is still able to load data from
    the second image on top of the first one. Since the first image is
    still in authenticated state, it can be executed, which could lead to
    the execution of unauthenticated arbitrary code of the second image.
    
    Firmware update documentation updated.
