binman and faked blobs failures

[Tom Rini]

Hey,

So here's a problem I have.  Today if I'm in a branch that has a commit
that's not in it's upstream branch (so lets say I'm testing a bunch of
patches I grabbed from patchwork in a local branch that knows master is
the upstream) and I do:

export SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH=1649712313
./tools/buildman/buildman -o /tmp/chromebook_samus -devl --step 0 -b testing -SBC chromebook_samus
Building 2 commits for 2 boards (2 threads, 8 jobs per thread)

    0    2    2 /4              chromebook_samus_tpl
Completed: 4 total built, duration 0:00:31, rate 0.13

Note that nothing changed for the board but on the second build now the
faked blob is unhappy and causes a failure message that I don't see the
first time, and probably shouldn't see this time either?  This is a
problem for me in that it's on most x86 boards and so makes it easier to
miss other real build failures in my testing.
