+ help
+ This option allows a string to be entered into U-Boot to stop the
+ autoboot. The string itself is hashed and compared against the hash
+ in the environment variable 'bootstopkeysha256'. If it matches then
+ boot stops and a command-line prompt is presented.

+ This provides a way to ship a secure production device which can also
