With the change below, the imx8qm_mek_defconfig builds without errors
in the absence of the blobs:

I removed SPL support, which does not seems to be needed as the scufw
handles DDR init.

I don't have access to an imx8qm/qxp board here.

Could you try removing SPL support from your board and see if it boots
with binman support?
