That GNU_STACK segment is produced by your toolchain.  It doesn't
really make sense to have it for standalone binaries like ATF, and
there is no reason to load it.  Not all toolchains produce a GNU_STACK
section.

But the make_fit_atf.py script already checks that the segment type is
PT_LOAD, so I don't understand what you're trying to fix here.  For me
things seem to work fine with mainline u-boot and ATF 2.1 on both the
rock64e and rockpro64.
