Can you double-check this? Looks to me like the symbol isn't set both
before/after this patch only because there's no image using u-boot-spl
or u-boot-tpl entries. At u-boot-dm/fit-working, binman verbose output
shows symbols being set as a later patch adds such entries.
But, I did get u-boot-any symbols to disappear by disabling
CONFIG_{SPL,TPL}_BINMAN_SYMBOLS, and u-boot-spl symbols by editing
common/spl/spl.c to make that config's ifdef include those symbols.
