+ * 0x00007000: Reboot logs (4 kB)
+ * 0x00008000: MCUBoot header (32 bytes)
+ * 0x00008020: Application (463+ kB)
+ * 0x0007be50: MCUBoot image trailer (432 bytes)
+ * 0x0007c000: MCUBoot Scratch partition (4 kB)
+ * 0x0007d000: unused (12 kB)
+ *
+ * SPI flash:
+ * 0x00000000: Bootloader Assets, like Boot Graphic (256 kB)
+ * 0x00040000: Application 2 (including MCUBoot header) (464 kB)
+ * 0x000b4000: User files - littlefs (3376 kB)
+ *
+ * This linker script sets the origin of the application at 0x00
+ * which means that the application must be linked with a start
+ * address at 0x00 and that it'll overwrite the bootloader.
+ * This is very practical when debugging and testing on
+ * the hardware with a SWD probe.
