The Qualcomm U-Boot default environment currently jumps straight to the EFI boot manager. This skips the standard bootflow scan used by bootstd to discover boot scripts and other boot methods. Patch the default environment to run bootflow scan -lb so FIT boot scripts can be discovered while preserving EFI support through the normal boot methods.

Define UBOOT_ENTRYPOINT for qcm6490 to the first available large DDR region after UEFI so FIT image generation has a stable entrypoint, which is required by kernel-fit-image.bbclass. Signed-off-by: Ricardo Salveti <ricardo.salveti@oss.qualcomm.com>
Add a deployable U-Boot boot script for Qualcomm FIT image boot. The script loads /fitImage from the boot partition discovered by bootstd and boots it via bootm. The kernel command line is composed from QCOM_BOOTIMG_ROOTFS, KERNEL_CONSOLE, and KERNEL_CMDLINE_EXTRA (defaulting to empty so machines can append extra arguments without breaking builds that do not set it). Set PACKAGE_ARCH to MACHINE_ARCH since the compiled script embeds machine-specific command line arguments. Signed-off-by: Ricardo Salveti <ricardo.salveti@oss.qualcomm.com>
Add an EFI System Partition image for the U-Boot FIT boot flow. The image populates its VFAT partition with only fitImage and boot.scr so bootstd can discover and execute the boot script. When an initramfs- bundled FIT (fitImage-<INITRAMFS_IMAGE_NAME>-<MACHINE>) is present it is preferred over the plain fitImage. The recipe is skipped when neither UBOOT_MACHINE nor UBOOT_CONFIG is set, matching the same guard used by linux-yocto-fitimage, so world builds on machines without U-Boot support skip it gracefully. The recipe is also skipped when kernel-fit-extra-artifacts is absent from KERNEL_CLASSES. linux-yocto-fitimage:do_compile requires linux.bin and linux_comp in the kernel deploy directory, which are only produced when that class is active. Also introduce esp-qcom-common.inc with the shared VFAT and image sizing settings common to all Qualcomm ESP images, so other images can reuse the same settings and avoid duplication.

Use esp-qcom-common.inc for the shared ESP image configuration and remove the duplicated VFAT, image sizing, and image feature settings from esp-qcom-image.bb. Signed-off-by: Ricardo Salveti <ricardo.salveti@oss.qualcomm.com>
Add kernel-fit-image.yml, a reusable kas fragment that switches a Qualcomm build to the FIT-based U-Boot boot flow. It removes the bootimg kernel class, enables kernel-fit-extra-artifacts to produce the FIT binary, sets QCOM_ESP_IMAGE to esp-qcom-fit-image, and clears EFI_PROVIDER since EFI boot is not needed in this flow.

Add a CI build entry for rb3gen2-core-kit with linux-qcom-6.18 and the u-boot-qcom FIT boot stack. The build composes ci/linux-qcom-6.18.yml, ci/u-boot-qcom.yml, and ci/kernel-fit-image.yml to validate the complete FIT image path, from kernel build through U-Boot boot script generation to ESP image packaging.

Add UBOOT_CONFIG for qcs9100-ride-sx using qcom_lemans_defconfig, which covers the Lemans/SA8775P SoC family shared with iq-9075-evk. Signed-off-by: Ricardo Salveti <ricardo.salveti@oss.qualcomm.com>
Define UBOOT_ENTRYPOINT for the qcs9100 SoC family at 0xb0800000, the first available large DDR region after UEFI. The address is taken from the Qualcomm memory configuration documentation: https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-80022-300/topic/memory_configurations.html Signed-off-by: Ricardo Salveti <ricardo.salveti@oss.qualcomm.com>
Add a CI build entry for qcs9100-ride-sx with linux-qcom-6.18 and the u-boot-qcom FIT boot stack, composing ci/linux-qcom-6.18.yml, ci/u-boot-qcom.yml, and ci/kernel-fit-image.yml to validate the complete FIT image path on the QCS9100 platform.

Add support for loading U-Boot FIT images containing kernel+initrd+dtb instead of UKI.
Draft as it is still wip, created PR for wider validation.
