ok I got this working by using the u-boot.bin

$ make u-boot.bin

and put it into the imx-mkimage repo from here:

https://source.codeaurora.org/external/imx/imx-mkimage

to create the full bootstream with scfw + atf + u-boot.

I thought that I could create the full bootsteam directly in u-boot repo
with:

> $ make flash.bin

as seen for other imx8 boards. Perhaps that is possible too but I don't
got it working that way.
