This is not very useful, since generally the error is related to something else, such as fixups failing. It is quite confusing to see this in a test run. Change the error and show the error code. We could update the OS functions to return -ENOSYS when they do not support the bootm subcommand. But this involves some thought since this is arch-specific code and proper errno error codes are not always returned. Also, with the code as is, all required subcommands are of course supported - a problem would only come if someone added a new one or removed support for one from an existing OS. Therefore it seems better to leave that sort of effort for when our bootm tests are improved. Note: v1 of this patch generated a discussion[1] about printing error strings automatically using printf(). That is outside the scope of this patch but will be dealt with separately.
