An earlier version of the script searched for the kernels (for future possible changes).
For increased speed, the newest version just dumps what it finds at the two kernel offsets in the image, getting the image length from the "header". On the K3 the second header contains garbage, so that long image was the result of a "garbage" image length. Just delete the (false) diags kernel image on a K3. It is just residue that can be safely ignored. Changing the script to detect it is running on a K3 and skip dumping the diags kernel would add to its complexity. Remember, it started out as a "one-liner" linux command anyway...
