Hmmm. What does "all" mean? It's not that descriptive.

On Tegra we currently have:

u-boot-spl.bin - just SPL.
u-boot.bin - just main U-Boot, I think.
u-boot-dtb.bin - main U-Boot plus an appended DTB, I think.
u-boot-dtb-tegra.bin - SPL+U-Boot+DTB.

Also, some have argued that they want to append a DTB outside the U-Boot
build process, so does "all" include SPL+U-Boot or SPL+U-Boot+DTB, or ...?
