The execution order of the bootm subcommands is fixed. Although here is a sanity check in the state machine which should prevent running the subcommands in wrong order but it does not catch all possible errors. It is possible to run any subcommand without running 'bootm start' first which leads to unexpected behaviour. For example, running 'bootm loados' without 'bootm start' causes a hang: U-Boot> bootm loados XIP Invalid Image ... OK OK Add a sanity check to 'do_bootm_subcommand' in order to ensure that no subcommands can be executed before 'bootm start'. After the patch running of any subcommand without running 'bootm start' will cause an error like this: U-Boot> bootm loados Trying to execute a command out of order bootm - boot application image from memory Usage: bootm [addr [arg ...]] - boot application image stored in memory ...
