Troy made a good observation yesterday: he asked me if after applying
this patch the error is still shown when BOOT_FROM is not passed in
the cfg file.

I tested it and it does not.

So we have some options here that I would like to discuss:

1. Drop the error message completely. This message is only helpful for
developers during bring up phase

2. Understand better the problem and fix the parallel build issue

I think 1 can be done for the upcoming release as the negative effect
of breaking builds is worse than showing the lack of BOOT_FROM tag.

Option number 2 would require more time to implement.

If you like I can resent a v2 of option 1 where the error message is removed.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks,

Fabio Estevam
