+ * Generic function to load an image at a specific address given an image ID and
+ * extents of free memory.
+ *
+ * If the load is successful then the image information is updated.
+ *
+ * If the entry_point_info argument is not NULL then this function also updates:
+ * - the memory layout to mark the memory as reserved;
+ * - the entry point information.
+ *
+ * The caller might pass a NULL pointer for the entry point if they are not
+ * interested in this information. This is typically the case for non-executable
+ * images (e.g. certificates) and executable images that won't ever be executed
+ * on the application processor (e.g. additional microcontroller firmware).
+ *
  * Returns 0 on success, a negative error code otherwise.
