socrates has its own flash layout, own build procedure and purpose of
this patch is just to prevent another breakage (like it was done in the
past) by throwing make errors.

Trying to adjust board code and changing its layout is really not up to
me. I do not have this board.

One there is generic binman build rules from make then it can be
switches to that generic binman rule. Until it happen there is not
better option...
