+Subject: [PATCH] feat(corstone1000): bl2 loads fip based on metadata
+
+Previously bl2 was reading the boot_index directly with a hard coded
+address and then set the fip image spec with fip offsets base based on
+the boot_index value.
+This commit removes this logic and rely on PSA_FWU_SUPPORT
+which reads the fip partition based on the active firmware bank written in
+metadata.
+
+Note: fip partition contains signature area at the begining. Hence, the fip
+image starts at fip partition + fip signature area size.
+
+Upstream-Status: Pending
+Signed-off-by: Mohamed Omar Asaker <mohamed.omarasaker@arm.com>
