[Bug 1000711] Confusing message on conclusion of ELF file download


http://bugs.ecos.sourceware.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1000711

Sorry, but there's no way to do what you ask.  The ELF loader has no
idea that X-modem is the transport when it cancels the download.
The X-modem code couldn't print this message because it doesn't
know why the download was aborted (there are many causes).

I think that documenting the fact that ELF images contain a lot of
fluff not used by RedBoot and that downloads are cut short to avoid
wastefully downloading such should be sufficient.  Realistically, I
have heard few [virtually none] complaints about this since it was
implemented more than 3 years ago.
