I don't think it is that simple. Even after guarding them SPL nodes the flash.bin one still references them,
not? And yes, so far we never used SPL for them 8/8X as that honestly does not really make much sense given the
SCFW does the actual RAM initialisation. Anyway, I am not very clear on how/what exactly that all means now.

Another topic is that flash.bin is now just the SPL whereas previously u-boot-dtb.imx was the entire thing. But
again, that could have been related to us not using SPL.

Also not quite sure what exactly that is now.
