Switch to use binman to pack images

---

Run into this issue on the first try to get binman working:

make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'SPL'.
  BINMAN  flash.bin
  MKIMAGE flash.bin
Error: spl/u-boot-spl.cfgout[16] - Invalid command (LOADER)
arch/arm/mach-imx/Makefile:190: recipe for target 'flash.bin' failed
make[1]: *** [flash.bin] Error 1
make[1]: *** Deleting file 'flash.bin'
Makefile:1519: recipe for target 'flash.bin' failed
make: *** [flash.bin] Error 2

Some clue howto fix that?
