Why is it based on such a old commit ID?

Thanks,

     spl: Restore args file being default in falcon mode

     When falcon mode is enabled and SPL_OS_BOOT_SECURE is not enabled,
     restore the previous default behavior of having an args file be
     expected. Platforms which are using a FIT image here and do not need
     this can update at their convenience to disable this option now.

     Fixes: b1a3ed068869 ("spl: make args file optional in falcon mode")
