The data portion of a IFS test image file contains a metadata region
containing possibly multiple metadata structures in addition to test
data and hashes.

Introduce the layout of this meta_data structure and validate
the sanity of certain fields of the new image before loading.
Tweak references to IFS test image chunks to reflect the updated
layout of the test image.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
