Here it's "strongly recommended" to use SPL FIT support, but not "must", as
someone may use U-Boot to execute their own code that wants EL3. In that
situation SPL FIT support shouldn't be present. U-Boot is not Linux Loader, so
we should give people the permission to disable it; however, U-Boot is mostly
used to load and execute Linux, so this should be defaultly enabled -- is this
correctly the meaning of defconfig?
